Changing Setup.rul file location

Hi,
I had created some project in that project the installscript file, setup.rul is on the Script files folder where my project file kept. I want to move this file to my project folder. How can I change the location for setup.rul.

Current folder structure
Main Folder|-->ism project file
-----------|-->Script files folder-->Setup.rul
-----------|-->Project Folder

Required folder structure
Main Folder|-->ism Project file
-----------|-->Project Folder-->Script Files folder-->Setup.rul

How to make it like this. Any help will be greatly appreciated.
I am using Basic MSI project

The trick I use, is to save the ISM project as XML.

I then open the XML in notepad and edit the location of the files.

I then reposition the .rul files to where you want them, and reopen the ISM in installshield.

Then change the project type to binary again.

Sorted... I hope... 🙂

Hi,

You can use the ISScriptFile table in the Diect Editor view to change the location of InstallScript file.

Thank you so much for your help. I found that can do save as the project that time I can uncheck the options "Create new porject name Subfolder", "Create and assaign new Poject GUID"...

If I do this it has any after effect?
