How to link a C# dll to a WiX program using custom action.
I am new to WiX so I tried what I could.

I used the following tags.

<Binary Id="Uninstall"   SourceFile="..\..\uninstaller.dll"/>
<CustomAction Id="UNINSTALLER" BinaryKey="Uninstall" DllEntry="ManagedInstall" Execute="deferred" Impersonate="no"/>

and

<Custom Action="Uninstall" Sequence="1699" After="InstallFinalize"></Custom>

This is not working; not even close. Could anyone help me out?
