Thanks, Bob. Using an all-uppercase Directory ID (and thereby making
this a public property) worked.

        I'm using WIXUI_INSTALLDIR to prompt the user to enter an

outlined in the help for the WIXUI_INSTALLDIR dalog set. I set the value
of WIXUI_INSTALLDIR to the Directory Id of the default location, and
this shows up in the dialog correctly. But If I change this location via
the dialog (to c:\OtherFolder), the components are still copied to the
default location. 


Try using an all-uppercase directory id. I didn't call it out in the doc
page, but it's a requirement to pass the selection you make in the UI to
the execute sequence.

If that works for you, I'll update the doc.
