Maybe I don't understand the GetVariableValue method, but it seems to need a
prefix and a variable name. What if I want the normal variables with the
prefix of "var" like $(var.myVariableName)? I didn't see any options to get
the variables you defined in the wix source. Like I was thinking of
something like:

<?define cost = 55 />
<Property Id="TEST" Value="$(Blah.GetValue(cost))" />

In this case, the prefix is var. 

I am envisioning something like:
<?define chs_cost = 55" />
<?foreach lang in chs;cht..?>
<Property Id="TEST" Value="$(Blah.GetValue($(lang)_cost))" /> 
<?endforeach>

This would end up pass values like chs_cost and cht_cost to the extension.
Then I would like to say GetVariableValue("var", "chs_cost") and it would
give me a value of 55.

Make sense?

I'm just not seeing how I would implement this. Am I on the write track? If
I want to access already defined variables that have a prefix of var, what
do I need to call?

Thanks
