How can I use CustomActionData to get user input from an installation interface in my custom action?
Reply: When we create a Setup Project to generate a setup package, we can add some dialogs in the User Interface view to customize the UI. We can also add some custom actions in the Custom Actions view to custom the setup process. In some cases, we need to pass some parameters those we get from the user input to the custom actions; we can use the CustomActionData property of the custom action to do this.
