Removing actions from InstallExecuteSequence table

I need to create an msi that installs an application on the client machine,
but leaves no discernable footprints (ie., no registry entries and no entry
in add/remove programs). According to this article
(http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/lib...19(VS.85).aspx) I need to
remove the RegisterProduct Action, RegisterUser Action, PublishProduct
Action, and PublishFeatures Action from the InstallExecuteSequence Table and
AdvtExecuteSequence Table. I was able to do this using orca from the windows
sdk. Is there some way of accomplishing this task with a custom action in a
setup project? From everything I've read I think I should be able to do
this, but I have not yet found the right documentation.

Thanks!
