Here are my needs : I've created a deferred custom action that is calling a DLL in order to display progress text during it's execution. This DLL needs to access database properties. Knowing that there is some restriction, I'm trying to access the CustomActionData Property, that is set by another custom action in the install sequence. However, the call to MsiGetProperty crashes with several Access Violation errors. This is a behavior I previously encountered when the requested property is inaccessible ! What's happening ?

Did you follow the steps in InstallShield's knowledge base article?

Yes I do.
Here is the content of my custom action :
Type : Set a Property
Source : Deferred custom action name
Target : [PROPERTY1];[PROPERTY2];[PROPERTY3]
Execute Scheduling : Always Execute

Execute Scheduling : Always Execute
It is following LaunchConditions in the execute installation sequence.

The problem is solved.
I've suppressed and recreated the custom actions.
