A launch condition displays a single message using a modal dialog box and 
aborts 
the install.   Instead you'd have to write a custom dialog.   But you can't 
literally run the exe and dll right after because you are in the UI sequence 
and  you shouldn't make system changes until the execute sequence.  Still you 
can pass the users choice in a property down stream for later processing.

Subject: [WiX-users] Multiple actions when a launch condition fails

Hi:
I've got an msi that I'm writing, and I'm setting a property if an existing 
non-msi install is present, if it is, I need to present the user with an 
dialogue presenting yes/no choices, when yes is pressed run an executable and a 
dll custom action then continue the installation. If no is pressed exit.
What is the best way of doing ths?
Cheers
Sean.
