Hello all,
In an ALLUSER install, I'm trying to set up my desktop icon(s) so that the WorkingDirectory is set to a per-user location. If I do (bits omitted for clarity): <Property Id="PERSONALFILES" Value="%USERPROFILE%\My Documents\Our Files" /> <Shortcut Id="shortcut".. WorkingDirectory="PERSONALFILES"/> Then every user's Working Directory is set to c:\Documents and Settings\john\My Documents\Our Files (as "john" did the original ALLUSERS install) If I modify the shortcut "by hand" to contain the literal string "%USERPROFILE%\My Documents\Our Files" then Windows evaluates the variable as the process starts and the working directory is as I want it. So, in a nutshell, the question is how do I set the "WorkingDirectory" attribute to contain the literal text "%USERPROFILE%"? Thanks, John. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ uberSVN's rich system and user administration capabilities and model configuration take the hassle out of deploying and managing Subversion and the tools developers use with it.
