K, this may be a simple one... I use the system search to find the data in a DWORD in the registry. I assign the data to a property and use it as a condition for other stuff. Looking at my logfile, I could tell that the action didn't run as I expected so I looked at the property. The value in the property has a # in front, (ie. #4 instead of just 4) I can't put a # in a condition. How do I get rid of that # so I can get back just 4?

# indictaes the type of the value (documented in the MSI help). If you need to remove it the only way is a custom action.
Why can't you use a # in a condition? How does your condition look like?

Well, if I try to write
| CODE |
| PROPERTY=#4 |
in the condition field I get a pop-up error immediately in the IDE saying "The data entered is invalid". Would it be the same if I just put
| CODE |
| PROPERTY=4 |
I can't seem to find the spot in the help system where it talks about this. Perhaps if you could tell me where to look in the help I could figure it out. (I do usually try to search the help pages before posting questions!) Thanks!
