Hello all,
I am trying to do the following:
* I am reading a directory from a registry entry that comes back as
something like C:\dir1\dir2\dir3
* I want to take that directory path and make it into C:\dir1\dir4
(basically, I know what dir2 and dir3 are - always. I want to be
able to take the substring of the directory path where the
substring goes from location 0 (the C) to where dir2 begins. Then
I can append dir4 - which I also always know the name of. I hope
that clarifies this a bit.)
Is there a "simple" way to manipulate that string or property?
(I am totally unfamiliar with CDATA so that may be something, but I
don't know.)
Here is my code getting the info from the registry. I am hoping I can
throw in something within the property tags so it all happens at once
following the registry retrieval....if possible I guess.
<Property Id="XMLINSTALLDIR" Value="C:\dir1\dir4">
<RegistrySearch Id="ProductRegEntry" Type="directory"
Root="HKLM"
Key="Software\COMPANY\PRODUCT"
Name="PRODUCTLOCATION"
Win64="no" />
</Property>
Thanks for any and all help!!!!
