Custom action question

I have a project that that asks the user for some valued and stores them in properties.

I need to run an exe file (included in my project as one of the files to be installed) and pass some of these properties and 1 static numerical value to it as parameters. The exe file will use the supplied parameters to create a couple of encrypted strings and update another file that is also included in my project. I do not care as to when this is performed during the installation process, but it must be done behind the scenes.

I tried creating a "new installed custom action" and gave it the proper file path and 1 static numerical value. but I get an error at runtime. Error code 2753.

Any ideas on how I can accomplish this?
