Thanks for the answer,
I should describe my problem more detailed.
I don't want to use this Macro inside of the installer. If my Tool starts
the installation is done. My informations to check the installation are only
the wxs and wxi files. So I want to know if there is a way to get the
correct real path to this macro outside the installer. I know there is an
MSI object available for example.
I'm not realy shure if this is the correct forum for my question :) it' s a
question with focus to wix and c#
