guys
I have some VB code which detects if the PC is a laptop or not by using WMI to see if there's a battery installed on the PC.
I would like the VB Code to change a "Property" in the MSI so I can do....
IF Laptop = "TRUE" then
Install Laptop components
END
IF Laptop = "False" THEN
Install Desktop Components
END
Do you see what I'm trying to acomplish....
....is it possible and does anyone know how?
Regards

It is very possible. Every VBS CA that is called has a Session object available to it by default. To set a property you would:
Session.Property("PROPNAME") = "Your value"
As for creating custom actions, there are several options available to you, I suggest you start with the SDK docs.
MSDN Platform SDK Documentation for Windows Installer.
There is a lot of info in there and it can be a bit overwhelming at times, but there is some good stuff there too.
