[adding wix-users back]

True.  I'd do something like this:

        <Product Name="My Product $(var.Version)" Version="$(var.Version)">

Then let the preprocessor take care of replacing the version everywhere.

Then I have to update the ProductVersion in multiple places when I do a 
release..  I'd rather avoid this.



Moreso, how can I do something like the following:



<Directory Id="INSTALLDIR" Name="MyApp" LongName="MyApp [ProductVersion]"> ..  
When I do that now, I get the literal [ProductVersion] as opposed to the 
version number..



Thanks for the help -Chris
