I want to be able to use a Property value in the Name attribute of a Directory entry. I set the property by reading a directory path from the registry, then want to indicate that that is the path into which I will be installing. Here is a snippet, indicating that I want to create a directory named 'Custom' in the installation directory identified by the property EG_INSTALLDIR. Instead, [EG_INSTALLDIR] is read literally, and a directory named '[EG_INSTALLDIR]' is created at the c:\ root. Is there any way to indicate a property in a Directory's Name attribute?
Thanks, Bob <Property Id="EG_INSTALLDIR"> <RegistrySearch Id='EnterpriseGuideRegistry' Type='raw' Root='HKLM' Key='Software\SAS Institute Inc.\EnterpriseGuide\4.2' Name='InstallLocation' /> </Property> <Directory Id="TARGETDIR" Name="SourceDir"> <Directory Id="EG_INSTALLDIR" Name="[EG_INSTALLDIR]" > <Directory Id="EnterpriseGuideCustomTasksLocation" Name="Custom" /> </Directory> </Directory> -- Bob Uva Software Development Consultant Portland, OR mobile: 503-810-6387 eMail: robert...@gmail.com ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Let Crystal Reports handle the reporting - Free Crystal Reports 2008 30-Day trial.
