How to read Release Flags in VB custom action?
Hello,
Custom action is created using VB script. I need to read Release flags.
Can I access it directly using ISRelease Flags?
Should I somehow call MsiGetProperty ?
approximate code:
dim releaseFlags
set releaseFlags = ?????
dim IE
set IE = CreateObject("InternetExplorer.Application")
IE.visible = TRUE
IE.Navigate("http://XXX/XXX.asp?act=" + releaseFlags)
Thank You.

There is a property called ISReleaseFlags which is designed to retrieve the value of release flags. In InstallScript, I use MsiGetProperty to get its value.

To get the property value in VBScript, you can use Session.Property("ISReleaseFlags").

Exactly what I need (access flag in VB script). Thank You.
