In the immortal words of Homer J Simpson...
D'oh!
I blame it on not enough coffee! I knew that really,
I'd just temporarily misplaced it! :-)
Thanks for setting me straight.

PAL Greetings all,
I'm
sure this question has been asked many times… but I can't find it in the
archives so I guess I'm searching for the wrong
thing. The
application we are installing references a database (MDB) file.
It
is required that the user has the option to install a preconfigured sample
database. Because the database is both read,
and written, and is shared across all users on the machine, it seems appropriate
that the file be installed to a sensible location. According to the "Designed
for Windows XP" spec, the location in question should be determined using a
request to SHGetFolderPath specifying CSIDL_COMMON_APPDATA, then appending the
correct company and product folders. How do I make the call to SHGetFolderPath
in WiX? (Presumably it's a custom action somewhere, but an example would be
appreciated!) On
a related note, is there any way to ensure that the folder in question is
writeable by all users, or is that automatically the case (unless overridden by
an administrator). Regards, |
