Logging

I'm working on an InstallScriptMSI project.

I've read that if you create a registry key called "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\InstallShield\ISWI\3.0\SetupExeLog" and give it a value of "VerboseLogFileName"="c:\\InstallLog.txt" that a log file is created whenever the installation is run.

Is there a way to add my messages to that log file?

Or is there a better way to get optionally log information?

Perhaps see this newsletter tip regarding options for writing to the standard MSI log file (PDF): http://www.acresso.com/webdocuments/PDF/msi_writing_to_the_log_file.pdf.
