Hi,

Within my install program, I have a component that needs to be installed on the the target machine in a specific directory. The problem is that I don't know which directory it is until install time, when I have a custom action determine the correct location.

Once I know the location, how can I author my install so that the component is installed in the identified folder?

Regards,
Sijmen.

Hey,

Jam a Custom Action 35 after "CostFinalize" and set the Directory the value there with the property (containing the path which you found during runtime) you have set in a earlier Custom Action.

This trick works for me!! Hope it will work for you to....
