Thanks for your answer Bob, but I think I need to clarify the difficulties I am facing. I know how to place a directory under the ProgramMenuFolder like <Directory Id="ProgramMenuFolder" Name="PFiles" LongName"Programs"> <Directory Id="ProgramMenuDir" Name="test" LongName="Test 1.0" /> </Directory> But say I have a property GROUPSEL which has been set in a UIDialog and want to use this name. How would I do that? <Directory Id="ProgramMenuFolder" Name="PMenu" LongName"Programs"> <!-- does not work --> <Directory Id="ProgramMenuDir" Name="test" LongName="[GROUPSEL]" /> <!-- does not work --> <Directory Id="ProgramMenuDir" Name="test" LongName="GROUPSEL" /> <!-- how to formulate it properly? --> <Directory Id="ProgramMenuDir" Name="test" LongName="????????" /> </Directory> I searched the archives and the help manual, but don't find a properly solution. Maybe it's simply related using the wrong keywords.
