ISCustomActionReference Table Information
Column	Type	Key	Nullable	Description
Action_	Identifier	Yes	No	Identifier that references an entry in the CustomAction table.
Description	Text	No	No	Text that describes the behavior of the custom action. When InstallShield builds a release of a Basic MSI, InstallScript MSI, or merge module project, it populates this column with the text in the file that is referenced in the ISCAReferenceFilePath column. If you are working on a project in Direct Edit mode, InstallShield streams the contents of the file into this column as soon as you select the help file in the Custom Actions and Sequences view (or the Custom Actions view).
FileType	Text	No	No	The file type of the help file.
ISCAReferenceFilePath	Text	No	No	The full path, including the file name, for the file that describes the behavior of the custom action. This column is included in the InstallShield project file (.ism), but not in the .msi file.
