Custom Action and Binary table
I have a custom action set to enable IIS6 on Win2003 box using the command Sysocmgr.exe /i:sysoc.inf /u:"iis_on.txt"
The command takes answer file "iis_on.txt" as a parameter. I am planning to include this with my installation package as a temporary file so I can execute it on client machine, I could use some direction on how to accomplish this.
Searching in these forums indicated that I should include iis_on.txt in Binary table, however I still don't know how to extract the file? where it is extracted? and how to execute Sysocmgr.exe and pass the answer file path as parameter.
Would appreciate the help guys.

I figured it out guys...
I added the answer file in Support Files (Language Independent) and used [SUPPORTDIR] in Custom Action. Worked like a charm!
