Bob, I would prefer to use WixVariables in my source, and that's exactly what I tried first.
I think there's some reason the UI extension wasn't seeing them. Are there some special rules about relative paths for these variables vs. the .wxs or the 'working directory' of the call to Light? Is this something I need to provide a small sample project (with no files) for so that someone can help me? It seems like this should be simple, but I spend half the day Monday trying to get it to work and finally had to break down and just build an MST to help me make the changes with Orca in a repeatable manner. However, I'd still like to get it working in WiX for the long run, since applying the transform manually seems utterly stupid.

Try Light first, for the easy case, as documented in WiX.chm. -- sig://boB http://joyofsetup.com/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Moblin Your Move Developer's challenge Build the coolest Linux based applications with Moblin SDK & win great prizes Grand prize is a trip for two to an Open Source event anywhere in the world http://moblin-contest.org/redirect.php?banner_id=100&url=/ _______________________________________________ WiX-users mailing list WiX-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/wix-users ************************************************************************************** This communication is intended solely for the addressee and is confidential.
