How do I set Folder Permission in InstallScript MSI

I have an InstallScript 2010 MSI project and I want to be able to set the permissions on some of the folders where I'm installing my components. On the property page for the component, if I click the ellipsis, the dialog opens to set the permissions, so what do I enter for Domain and User for the groups "Users" and "Everyone" ?

OK I just figured it out. If I go to the General Information property page and click the option for Lock-Down Permissions, and select Custom InstallShield handling, the when I click on the permission button for the component, I can set the permissions for the folder by adding a new user and then clicking the dropdown for that field to select the group that I would like to assign privileges to such as: Users, Power Users, Adminitrators, Everyone....
