Hi, I'm new to Wix and to the list. I've been working on my installer, which
needs to be multilingual. I'm using the Mondo UI. In the license agreement
dialog, there are a couple of lines that define the text window that holds
the text of the license agreement. It looks like this:

<Control Id="LicenseText" Type="ScrollableText" X="20" Y="60" Width="330"
Height="140" Sunken="yes" TabSkip="no">
    <Text SourceFile="License.rtf" />
</Control>

Since my license agreement text is in various languages, I have a different
file for each. I wanted to modify the existing code to localize the license
filename something like this:

<Text SourceFile="$(loc.LicenseFilename)" />

Unfortunately this doesn't seem to work: the substitution never gets made
and the linker complains that it can't find the file with filename
"$(loc.LicenseFilename)".

Is this my misunderstanding, a bug, or by design? If the above method cannot
work, then what's the next best way to handle this? (As a last resort, I'll
probably just do a file copy/rename of the license file before compiling.)

Thanks!

Jim
