That will only work for a deferred custom action because MSI maps the property
with the name of the CA to a property called CustomActionData which is what
that
implementations constructor uses to populate the dictionary. You need to look
at the CustomActionData constructors and methods ( sorry, don't remember which
right now ) that allows you to constructor it using a different property name.
Make sense?

Subject: Re: [WiX-users] Passing values to CA not working
Yes I do. Following is the function call to get the data from session.
public static string[] GetCustomActionDataArguments(Session session)
{
string[] keys = new string[session.CustomActionData.Keys.Count];
session.CustomActionData.Keys.CopyTo(keys, 0);
return keys[0].Split(',');
}
And below is how I am calling this method:
string[] aruguments = GetCustomActionDataArguments(session);
string svrname = aruguments[0];
string instanceName = aruguments[1];
