Murray, Try writing the properties into registry values at install and then using the Registry Search to read the values back into properties at the start of an upgrade

Another thing which I would love is the ability to migrate the properties too, like the database name etc. Is there any secret similar Migrate Properties custom action somewhere by chance?
