The Windows Installer engine is not aware of INF files. Reading property
values from an inf file would require a custom action. That said, WiX might
add such an action by default, but I don't know WiX well enough. Probably
others in here could answer this.
Otherwise, to help us better understand
Did you create a log file to see what value GPMCCHECK really has after

The component must have the msidbComponentAttributesTransitive bit set

To abort the install from a DLL custom action have the DLL return something
different from ERROR_SUCCESS and make sure your custom action is configured
to evaluate the return value.

Component and Feature conditions are both evaluated during the CostFinalize
action, so you can't base them on user selection. You could place the

Looks like this is the case ... but is this documented anywhere?

Are you testing this on a clean machine? Did you check the Windows Event
Log? Maybe it's triggering auto-repair of some other package, maybe a test
package you had installed previously?

I would prefer incrementing the file version number. If that's not feasible,
you could set REINSTALLMODE to vemus instead of vomus (o = overwrite 'o'lder
version, e = overwrite older or 'e'qual version). Version lying can have
undesired side effects, like downgrades or unwanted auto-repairs.

I guess the only ways would be either Edit control or ScrollableText
control, but I haven't tested this.

Stefan,
not sure if this is a feasible method for the typical scenario. It would
require the user to (manually) copy the INI file to the Windows folder
first, which also requires administrator privileges. Or you would need to
use some deployment technology to pre-copy the INI file to the Windows
saying is that i will have to go ahead and code the
whole thing in an CustomAction ??
Thanks

User input is stored in properties. If these are public properties (in all
upper case) and listed in the SecureCustomProperties property you can set
them on the command line. If you prefer a "response file" like solution, a
transform could store the property values.

You can't in the Execute sequence, but technically it's possible in the UI
sequence as RuneC already found out - but it's a trick and you shouldn't use
it for a couple of reasons: If your setup runs in silent or Basic UI mode
the UI sequence is skipped and the SQL install won't be called. On Vis
This topic in the SDK has some information about property precedence,

NEWERVERSIONDETECTED is a strange property name for the detection of an

You could use three custom actions:
A deferred action that makes a backup copy of the file and then modifies it
(basically what you have now).
A rollback action that would replace the modified file with the backup copy.
A commit action that deletes the backup copy.
