Hi there,

When you run a silent install, you can specify the location of the setup.log with the -f2 commandline switch.

Does anybody know if there is a function or system variable with which you can obtain the location of this file ?

Thnx, Ide

Why not search CMDLINE itself for -f2 and extract the trailing path/filename?

Because IShield strips CMDLINE of all standard commandline options. Alas, only custom written options are present in CMDLINE and as such the -f2 switch is not present.
