I have three properties that determine the install location of various components. I was short sighted and only saved the INSTALLOCATION property to the registry. Now when doing a major upgrade the reinstall uses the default paths instead of the paths selected in the previous version of the product. No shocking news there. However a repair of the original install will use the paths the user originally selected. I am wondering where this data is stored, and if it can be accessed and used by a major upgrade? I was under the assumption this data was not persisted, but now I am wondering how this is persisted for a repair operation? Thanks for any insight with this, I have painted myself into a corner pretty good this time! -Aaron ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- -- WhatsUp Gold - Download Free Network Management Software The most intuitive, comprehensive, and cost-effective network management toolset available today.
