In a merge module, I'm trying to create an environment variable that contains the path to where the product is being installed to. My merge module uses the code below to do it, but it's not working quite right. When the product gets installed to "c:\program files\mycompany\myapp", [TARGETDIR] in the merge module only puts "C:\" into the environment variable even though the product does install to the full path. Is there a different way to handle this? <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
