The syntax for using the localization string should be $(loc.UninstallAppShortcut). I'm guessing that !(loc.UninstallAppShortcut) is evaluating to the null value.

Candle output error like: candle.exe : error CNDL0001 : Cannot set column 'Name' with a null value because this is a required field. But if I add a space or an other char to the value of the Name attribute, it run without errors! <Shortcut Id="UninstallAll" Directory="ProgramMenuDir" Name=" !(loc.UninstallAppShortcut)" ... Is it a bug ? Laurent ------------------------------------------------------------------------ - Using Tomcat but need to do more? Need to support web services, security?
