There is something seriously wrong with my installer. I tried the code you sent and it doesn't change anything. It still installs my code to c:\Refrenc.CAB which doesn't even exist in code anymore. I don't know what's going on.

You're not actually referring to INSTALLDIR though. Try this: <Property Id="INSTALLDIR">c:\Program Files\Test</Property> <Directory Id="TARGETDIR" Name="SourceDir"> <Directory Id='INSTALLDIR' Name='RDPath'> ... </Directory> </Directory> <Feature Id='RDPath' Title='ReferenceData' Description='Descrip of ReferenceDataCAB' Display='expand' Level='1' ConfigurableDirectory="INSTALLDIR"> That should install to c:\Program Files\Test. That's pretty much what I have working now. -----Original Message----- From: Alex Steen [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, April 12, 2007 2:48 PM To: Chris Bardon; [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: [WiX-users] Changing the value of TargetDir?

Did you set your main feature up with the ConfigurableDirectory="INSTALLDIR" attribute? -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of JCWrs Sent: Thursday, April 12, 2007 1:56 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [WiX-users] Changing the value of TargetDir? Hello all, In my installer I have the user set the folder to which they wish to install the app. I get this value in the INSTALLDIR property and that works just fine. However, I am having trouble figuring out how to get my files to install to the INSTALLDIR directory. How do I make TARGETDIR equal INSTALLDIR (or am I approaching this wrong)? -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Changing-the-value-of-TargetDir--tf3567207.html#a9 964890 Sent from the wix-users mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ - Take Surveys.
