Quick question regarding the way the WiX sql custom actions. When you
specify multiple sql scripts or strings with their associated sequences,
does the custom action open a new connection for each string/script executed
or does it reuse the connection until it has looped through all of the

Looks like retrieving a reg_multi_sz using the RegLocator table during
AppSearch is not a great way of doing this. Plenty of places on the web
document this oddity. I think you might just want to use a custom action
instead of a registry search to retrieve this value and write it to a
property.
Can you search all of your wxs files for configuresql and see if you are
referencing it somewhere? Maybe in a before or after tag? Also, have you
replaced the wixlibs with the new ones from the latest WiX 2.0 build?

You can embed the sql right in your wxs file using sqlstring instead of
sqlscript. That will allow you to include properties in the sql statements.

The recommended way to do this is to create language transforms and then
call the msi from a setup.exe bootstrapper which will pass the correct

the properties directly. An example follows:

It might be a good idea to schedule this based on the state of the component
