Hi,
I need to write a key to the registry pointing to the location of my
program. It is in the ProgramFilesFolder. How do I refer to this
variable in the registry key?
with the following I get an MSI out but it crashes halfway through;
<Directory Id='TARGETDIR' Name='SourceDir'>
<Directory Id='ProgramFilesFolder'
Name='PFiles'>
<Directory Id='MYDIR' Name='TestProg'
LongName='Test Program'>
<Component Id='hotkeyfiles'
Guid='12345678-1234-1234-1234-098765432112'>
<File Id='hotkeysexe'
LongName='GrowBusinesshotkeys.exe'
Name="hotkeys.exe" DiskId='1' Vital="yes"
src='C:\projects\work\growbusinesshotkeys\demomachin
e\hotkeys.exe' />
<File Id='gbsicon'
Name='gbslogo.ico' DiskId='1' Vital="yes"
src='C:\projects\work\growbusinesshotkeys\demomachin
e\gbslogo.ico' />
<File Id='gbssite'
Name='gbssite.txt' DiskId='1'
src='C:\projects\work\growbusinesshotkeys\demomachin
e\gbssite.txt' />
<File
Id='_1280X1024contextsetter' Name="c1280x1"
LongName='1280X1024contextsetter' DiskId='1'
src='C:\projects\work\growbusinesshotkeys\demomachin
e\1280X1024contextsetter' />
<Registry Root="HKCU"
Key="Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run"
Action="createKey" >
<Registry Name="SIHotkeys"
Value="${var.MYDIR}\hotkeys.exe" Type="string" />
</Registry>
Cheers,
Bryan Rasmussen
