That is good tip for taking the allusers property out. Thanks. I wonder how to set it in SCCM because it is not running unless using administrative credentials. Running it for every use who logs on would work under the user account, however, the user does not have the right to install the product, so it errors out because of not having elevation right. Running it as an administrator (system account) through SCCM, the shortcuts and files are not created because the files go to the profile of the system account. How can I overcome that problem? Any help would be appreciated.

The reason I suggested using [PersonalFolder] is because during run-time this will be resolved to the actual path to the My Documents folder of the user running the install. And this actual path will be in the XML file after the install is finished (not [PersonalFolder]). Have you looked at the XML File Changes view help in InstallShield Editor? XML File Changes View http://helpnet.flexerasoftware.com/Robo/BIN/Robo.dll?tpc=%2Frobo%2Fprojects%2Finstallshieldlivinghelp%2FISLivingHelpMain2.htm%3FRINoLog28301%3DT&mgr=agm&wnd=InstallShieldLivingHelp%7CMain&agt=wsm&ctxid= The first step may be to create a brand new sample Basic MSI test project and try to modify the contents of a xml element with a hard-coded path. Once you are able to get this to work, then you can substitute in [PersonalFolder] instead of the hard-coded path. And once you have this working, you can go back to your actual project and implement the same thing there. Hope this gets you on the right track, Ajay
