It is possible to use new line character sequence in MSI!!!
My solution:
Use Immediate CA (C++ Dll) to fill the public property (e.g. CRLF)
with "\r\n" and then use the [CRLF] in the Error table.
It works perfect.
Hope that it will help somebody.

Unfortunately the Deferred custom action does not have acces to the
installation database.
So the solution is to have several Custom actions:
1) Immediate custom action that will read the text from Error Table,

I have already found some interesting thing.
The function
MsiProcessMessage(hInstall,
INSTALLMESSAGE(INSTALLMESSAGE_USER|MB_OK), hRecord)
can use two forms of hRecord.
If you use
MsiRecordSetInteger(hRecord,1,uiErrorID)
then the string is taken from Error table and cannot use the \r\n
(new line).
You can't force newlines. I had to resort to creating multiple text controls.

Hi list,
I want to add my own text to some custom error (e.g. Id 25001).
Problem is that I don't know how to enter the new line character
sequence. (\r\n does not work).
Any suggestions?
Thanks
