Is there a way to set the target directory of a reinstall() during build time.  For instance, i change the <targetdir> variable during normal installation to alter the destination directory.  This doesn't seem to work in a reinstall.  any ideas?

A true maintenance install should auto. make use of the previous location.  If you are trying override that location with some alternative path, then I can see how you might have problems.

For starters though, have you stepped through in the debugger and verified what's actually going on.

Also, are you using the default OnMaintUIBefore & OnMaintUIAfter events?  In other words, do these functions exist in your InstallScript?
