Package Wizard - attaching script file

I'm using the package wizard that came with Access Developer Extensions in the Visual Studio Tools for Office 2003 to distribute an Access application. As part of the installation procedure, I need to run a script. I've set the script up as a chained file with a type of .EXE (per the guidelines of the documentation)

The script file (xxxx.vbs) runs fine as a standalone application. However, when I run the install process itself, the package gets installed but the script fails. The message produced claims that it is "not a valid win32 application".

Am I doing somehting wrong? Is there a way to work around this problem?

Thanks for any assistance.
