In an attempt to generalize my .wxs, I realized that I'm not clear at all
on when I can use [Manufacturer] and [ProductName] and when I cannot. While
I can use it here:

<MajorUpgrade DowngradeErrorMessage="A newer version of [ProductName] is
> already installed." />


I cannot use it here (it just shows up literally as [ProductName]) in my
install

      (doesn't work)
>       <Directory Id="ProgramFilesFolder">
>         <Directory Id="INSTALLFOLDER" Name="[ProductName]" />
>       </Directory>


or here

        (doesn't work)
>         <Shortcut Id="DesktopShortcut" Name="[ProductName]"
>                   Directory="DesktopFolder"
>                   Target="[INSTALLFOLDER]LittleApp.exe"
>                   WorkingDirectory="INSTALLFOLDER"/>


Any help would be much appreciated.

Respectfully,
Tim
