Hopefully that will tell you if it is what you want.

Subject: Re: [WiX-users] Question about the installer directory

Hello all,

I turned on logging for a test run and found the CURRENTDIRECTORY and
SourceDir properties. CURRENTDIRECTORY seemed promising but isn't what I
wanted when the current Windows directory was something else (like when I
ran the msi from the command line with a path from a different directory).

SourceDir, though, is what I think I want, unless someone has warnings about
what SourceDir is? My logs suggest it is exactly what I need but that was
just from one example run.

Thanks,

Dave
