Path parsing
Hi again!
I have a Searcher bean that assists the user in locating an older installed exe. The install then adds a plugin to a previous directly, ../.. from that exe.
The problem is that the user ends up seeing the ../.., is there an easy way to simply a path? I can write the java code myself and parse that, just thought I'd ask :).
I currently use: $PATH($V(IS_DESTINATION),../..)

Perhaps see if the $N string resolver will do what you want.

Exactly what I wanted!
My documentation unfortunately does not contain anything on $A or $N... I get "The page cannot be displayed."
Thank you!

How strange; perhaps see the docs here at HelpNet: helpnet.macrovision.com/Robo/BIN/Robo.dll?tpc=/robo/projects/installshieldmp11-5helplib/UsingNormalizePathStringResolver.htm...
