From the Example I gave Earlier:
<XmlFile Id="ModifyServiceLocation" Action="setValue"
ElementPath="/configuration/appSettings/add[@key='ServiceLocation']/@value"
File="[INSTALLLOCATION]\sample.config" Value="[SERVICELOCATION]"/>
Which outputs:
--sample.config--
<configuration>
<appSettings>
<add key="ServiceLocation" value="ABCDEFG"/>
</appSettings>
</configuration>
As John alluded to, keeping track of strings is easier if you give the
file sample.config an ID and refer to the Id.
