What are the exact criteria for getting automatically generated GUIDs to
work?

I suspect this is related to my use of WIX_DIR_COMMON_DOCUMENTS (since there
doesn't seem to be another way to get to that "standard" directory).

I'm getting this error:

error LGHT0231: The component 'indexComp' has a key file with path
'TARGETDIR\company name\product name\subfolders\index.html'.  Since this
path is not rooted in one of the standard directories (like
ProgramFilesFolder), this component does not fit the criteria for having an
automatically generated guid.  (This error may also occur if a path contains
a likely standard directory such as nesting a directory with name "Common
Files" under ProgramFilesFolder.)
My components are in a fragment with a directory structure as follows:

  <Fragment>
    <PropertyRef Id="WIX_DIR_COMMON_DOCUMENTS"/>
    <DirectoryRef Id="TARGETDIR">
      <Directory Id="WIX_DIR_COMMON_DOCUMENTS">
        <Directory Id="CommonDocs" Name="Company Name">
          <Directory Id="SharedDocuments" Name="Product Name">
...


Thanks,

Scott
