folder location
Is there a way of passing the folder path that a Setup.exe resides in to a program imbeded in the Setup for me to use? I would need to use the reference in the "Custom Actions" area. I've tried a few of the [...folder] references, but can't seem to find the one I need.

If you have the program added to "Support Files" I think you can use "[SUPPORTDIR]" but I think the folder is not immediately accessible, I want to say it can be used during "commit" execution but I could be wrong on that.

I will try that and see what happens. Thanks.

You might also want to try the SETUPEXEDIR property.
