Dialog created MSI (c) (64:5C) [11:08:46:717]: PROPERTY CHANGE: Modifying VARIANT property. Its current value is '0'. Its new value: 'Demo'. But in my registry, under the name element it has Variant displayed as it should but the Data is empty. I'm at my wits end thinking of what this could be. I tried setting the initial Variant to equal Demo instead of 0 but it still gave me the same answer. So i guessed it was something to do with the registry entry but I have the type as string as i'm near sure the rest is as it should. Anyone any ideas?
