Defining Target Path From External Config File
Hi,
I'm using InstallShield 2019 Pro and i want to use an external config file to define where to install each component.
what is the best way to do that?
Thanks.

Hi @chenKahana,
Probably through a custom action you can achieve this.
1- Configure your component "Destination" with the PROPERTY
2- Then initialize these component destination properties through the custom action. Custom action has to be written in a such a way to read your config file and initialize all these component destination properties configured.

Can you give me an example to a custom action that performs that?
