Thanks for the suggestions but unfortunately it does really fit in with the way localisation works. The localisation isn't applied until link time and variables are compile time. I think that is the root of the problem I am having, the license file is needed for the compiler but I am trying to delay it until the link.
I think the ! is correct as that is how localisation variables are defined, I guess to differentiate them from compiler variables.

Subject: Re: [WiX-users] Localisation of WixUILicenseRtf Hi Neil, I'm not an expert & these might not work but they might help in some way (I haven't tested them but we do something similar - not same unfortunately). You could have something in StandardVars.wxi <?if $(var.WIXLanguage) = "ja-jp"?> <?define LCID = "1041"?> <?define myRFT = " License_ja-jp.rtf "?> And then have <String Id="LicenseRtf" Overridable="yes">$(var.myRFT)</String> And if that doesn't work just use <WixVariable Id="WixUILicenseRtf" Value="$(var.ProjectDir)\Support\$(var.myRFT)" /> Finally, should the exclaimation mark be there?

Subject: [WiX-users] Localisation of WixUILicenseRtf Is it possible to have localised versions of WixUILicenseRtf?
