Hey Eitan, It is difficult to handle the hierarchy issue you explained below. A Custom Action Type 35 (http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa368093(VS.85).aspx) will allow you set a formatted string. You could use the parent directory value in the text which will be expanded. I am not sure of another way unless you were to write your own CA.
