Re: [WiX-users] Directory element and Property

In other words, I don’t understand what happens when a user dismisses the BrowseDlg.  It looks like _BrowseProperty is set with the new path.  But how does my DataDirDlg map _BrowseProperty to my data path property?  Here’s my DataDirDlg.  Notice the Browse pushbutton.  I suspect here is part of my problem. The WixUI BrowseDlg expects _BrowseProperty to be set to the name of the property/directory to be changed, not the actual path. Also, it must be a public property (i.e., all uppercase) to be changed. -- sig://boB http://bobs.org
