Hi,
I am looking for a function in InstallShield 5.1 Professional edition, which can tell me whether a folder icon already exists or not.
For example: -
Folder icon: -
Start --> Program Files --> XYZ ---> ABC
My installer should check whether ABC icon exists on the machine or not. If it exists on the machine, then create
Start --> Program Files --> XYZ ---> ABC1
else create
Start --> Program Files --> XYZ ---> ABC
Can you please tell me how can i achieve this?
Regards

If not, you can create it with the following command, if it exists, create a different one.
If ABC and ABC1 exist ...
You can code a repeat- or while-phrase that changes the number when the link already exists, until ...
