You're overthinking it. You can set up your Directory elements for whatever directory structure you need and wherever the user changes INSTALLFOLDER to be, its child Directory elements will follow it there. For example, if the user changes the path of INSTALLFOLDER to C:\MyStuff, they'll get:
C:/ MyStuff data install Use Directory elements to set up your folders: <Directory Id="TARGETDIR" Name="SourceDir"> <Directory Id="INSTALLFOLDER" Name="Test"> <Directory Id="DataFolder" Name="data"> <Directory Id="InstallFolder" Name="install" /> </Directory> </Directory> </Directory> -- View this message in context: http://windows-installer-xml-wix-toolset.687559.n2.nabble.com/How-to-modify-installation-directory-to-append-extra-folder-to-install-directory-in-Wxs-file-tp7598215p7598361.html Sent from the wix-users mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Download BIRT iHub F-Type - The Free Enterprise-Grade BIRT Server from Actuate!
