Custom Actions

[Angela]

This is my first Web Setup App. and I'm learning
everything by trial and error. I need to write a couple
custom actions, but I must be doing something wrong
because they are causing errors.

Can someone give me an example of how to write a custom
action (C#)?

Thank you for responding

I need to be able to set some IIS properties, check the
version of the .NET Framework, and run DB scripts

Hello Angela,

The MSDN Library has an example of a custom action running an SQL script.
The topic name is something like "Passing data to a custom actions" as it
demonstrates usage of the CustomActionData property to pass SQL server,
login name and password to the custom action.
