Hi,

the light of some recent failures during upgrade, we have been working towards

The MSI performs a variety of things including GACing,
writing to registry and also includes a custom action which is used to install

Is there a way to schedule a custom action between two other
custom actions? For example, I have a custom action say CreateUserGroups which
