I am using property INSTALLDIR and _BrowseProperty in my VBscript for Custom action.

Is it require to declare INSTALLDIR and _BrowseProperty in the Property manager.
What should be their values?
My default installation path is [PROGRAMFILE][COMPANYNAME][MYPRODUCT]

If I pt any drive name in INSTALLDIR in projectmanager I will not know whether it is a valid drive in the installing machine.

What can be the ideal default values.
I also see if put C:\ as the value of INSTALLDIR in property manager then o run time it is showing my c:\programfiles\companyname\myproductName as the orinal setting of INSTALLDIR.


Please suggest

No you don't need to add them in property manager. INSTALLDIR is a directory and will automatically be set during the CostFinalize action. _BrowseProeprty is ususally set on a dialog. Make sure your VBScript runs after these proeprties have been set and it should be okay.
