Try creating a Directory entry with the same identifier as the property.
Use that directory as the directory for the component.  It's been a while
since I needed to do something like this, but I believe its how you an do
it.

Subject: [WiX-users] merge module installation location


I am creating a merge module that installs a DLL to the "Plugins" directory
of a third-party application.  I can find the root install folder with this:

        <Property Id="ActPath">
          <RegistrySearch Id='ActInstallDir' Type='raw'
            Root='HKLM' Key='SOFTWARE\ACT\Install' Name='InstallPath' />
        </Property>

However, I need to know how I can set the component's installation path to
the path that was found.  

Is this something I can do with WiX?
