How to Add two Different Property into Third Property
Hi,
I am using Install shield Basic MSI Project.
I have created one xml file and reading values from it and storing in a property named "NAME" using system search mechanism.
I also have to get the computer name which i am getting via registry entry using system search mechanism and storing this is property named "COMPUTERNAME".
Now during installation in customer Information dialog i want to store this two property in COMPANY EDIT edit box.
as NAME-COMPUTERNAME.
Please let me know how can i get to the solution.
Any help will be appriciated.
Thanks
Abhijeet

A set property custom action can be used to concatenate the values of various properties. For the "Property Value" value in a set property action, you can use:
[NAME]-[COMPUTERNAME]
The "Property Name" value specifies the name of the property you would like to set the above value in.
[NAME]-[COMPUTERNAME]
The "Property Name" value specifies the name of the property you would like to set the above value in.
