What is the best way to customize the strings that are part of the stock user

The strings I want to change are in WixUI_en-us.wxl. As best as I can tell,

David,
They sell a COM component that can be used from just about any language,
including VBScript. Here's the script I use, with some junk X'd out, and it
just gets invoked from the build tool. Note I have not migrated to MSBUILD

Thanks, Joe! That was it! I knew this in the back of my mind, too, but
failed to remember that I was using a different user than myself.
Thanks for all the help,
Correct me if I'm wrong - I looked at this approach. But what they sell
is a dll so I then have to write a program that uses that dll to create
the exe program. If they had a command line program that did this I'ld

No difference that I know of. That's a built-in MSI action. A verbose log
file should be able to show you more details about why it isn't installing.

Same issues we have with Chilkat - caption, icon, & version (I forgot
about that). So looks like we both are at the same point.

Ok, I looked into the details because this is working for us. We use
IExpress to compress everything into a single executable. You probably
already have IExpress, I believe that it's part of IE. IExpress lets
you specify a setup command (AppLaunched) and a post install command
(PostInstallCmd).
The only problem is it's Microsoft's bootstrapper from
MSBuild/GenerateBootstrapper so I have no control over that.

You'd need a CustomAction to try to logon that user (or something to verify it
is a valid user/password). There isn't anything in the WiX toolset for that
today, but it'd be cool if there was.

We're using Wix 3. One of our installers installs a service, but it may

prompt the user for the domain, username and password to apply during
