hi, i'm trying to write an installer for an addon. the dumb way, but i have to.
i'm reading the main install path of the main/parent app from registry. it is stored there as a full path string like "D:\Not Program Files\InstalledHereInstead\Foo App\" i read it using <Property Id="INSTALLDIR"> <RegistrySearch Id='mainprogdirsearch' Type='raw' Root='HKLM' Key='Software\Foo App\Setup Info' Name='locprogdir' /> </Property> and i'm guessing it gets read because a condition on INSTALLDIR is not triggered. but here's my problem: how do i then use this nice string path to actually specify the install location, that is otherwise and normally done by neatly nesting <Directory>-s one depth at the time thanks for your time end efforts in advance. jozsef koloszar, hungary ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Check out the new SourceForge.net Marketplace.
