Custom tables can be used whenever you want to store some data that doesn't
fit into the standard MSI schema. To be useful, you have to create some
custom actions to process the table and perform actions based on it. A very
large number of WiX features depend on the generation of custom tables.
Dark generates elements whenever it encounters anything it
doesn't understand.
The ISComponentExtended table is an InstallShield extension to the MSI
schema and as far as I can see is completely undocumented.
If you're moving from InstallShield to WiX you'll have to work out what
these extra actions do by referring back to the InstallShield project.

Subject: [WiX-users] CustomTable
Hi,
Can anyone explain about "CustomTable"?
Why & Where it is useful?
When I open my Client.msi orca I saw "IsComponentExtended" on right
side(Tables row)
It is showing components which are already there at components on right
side(Tables row)
What is the difference b/w them?
