Neil,

Interesting; I'd never used SetProperty before; I found that creating a 
Property with the same Id allowed me to give the Directory a default 
value.  Does anyone know of any caveats to this method?  The one I can 
see off the bat is that the Property element cannot be scheduled, but 
since I'm not using any UI, I don't know if that is a problem.

I'll try it and check the install log to see if it looks any different.

Thanks,
