Can I Use SystemSearch Result in my Installscript
I am creating a Installscript MSI Project, and I was wondering can I use the result of a Systemsearch in my Installscript and if Yes How do I call for this variable
For Example I search for a path in the registry and store this value into variable ProgPath.
Can I refer to this vcariable ProgPath in my Script?

You should be able to use MsiGetProperty to get the value of the property associated with the system search. Note that the search result/property value should be obtained in a pre-file transfer event such as OnBegin or OnFirstUIBefore.
