Default Custom Action 38 - how not to expose the vbscript in the log?

Hello,

In my installation package I have custom action type 38, embedded vbscript.
When it runs, Installer puts the full text of the vbscript in the detailed
log. Is there a way to avoid it?

thanks

I cannot test but the msidbCustomActionTypeHideTarget = 0x2000
flag might help: http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/aa368068.aspx

However, if your VBScript has hardcoded passwords embedded in it,
people who gain access to the MSI file can surely extract them
anyway.
