msi installer problem

I require some of your help for my problem, my problem is as follows:

User has to download an msi installer (which is created by me) from
some website to install at his/her machine. However there is some more
information available on the server which needs to be incorporated
with the msi Installer as soon as user starts downloading the msi
installer.

The point over here is that some information is available on server
which should be available to my application as soon as I start my
application after installation. The installer will be installing an
add-in for my outlook. I do not know how to achieve this.

RE: msi installer problem

It sounds like you should be creating a custom action in your installer for
this.
