How can a VBScript Custom Action tell if a specific feature has been selected for installation in the current session.   I need to launch certain custom actions only if specific optional features are being installed.  Each script will perform various configuration steps for its corresponding feature.   For example, I know I can set a condition on a custom action based on a property value, but I cannot identify which properties would contain a list of only those features that are being installed in the current session.

Thanks,

Place a condition on the CA that checks the action state of the feature.

For example, if a CA had a condition of &MyFeature=3, it would only be executed if MyFeature was going to be installed to the local drive.

Hope this helps.

Thanks, Leigh.  This is exactly what I was looking for.
