Custom Actions during Installation!

[Petrucci2000]

Hi All, I am looking to create an installation package (MSI ) which will
fire off few of my custom .vbs during the install process.

How to accomplish this task?


TIA
PS: I tried to include an installer class to my setup project and overrided
the install and uninstall methods but when I run the setup.msi I never see
those being fired!!

RE: Custom Actions during Installation!

Open the Custom Actions Editor in your Setup project
Right Click on the Root node (preferably, for .vbs you might prefer the
Install node only) and Add Custom Action
Navigate to the Application Folder
Click the Add File button
Select your .VBS File(s)

That should do it...
