What is Custom Action (CA) MSI type number 98?

Question

We have an InstallShield setup that's failing miserably and we can't figure out why, so I'm trying to reconstruct it step-by-step. Everything was going fine until I got to the Custom Actions and Sequences. We have a bunch of Custom Actions and when I click on any of them in the right-hand pane I see MSI Type Number: 98. According to this article these only go as high as 54. Anyone have any idea what a 98 is? It's a read-only field so I can't change it.

Answer 1

The Custom Action MSI type number 98 stands for the following ...

• Custom Action Type 34 is for calls an executable launched with a command line
• The rest (+64) is for CA processing options which stands for a synchronous execution that ignores exit code and continues.
