Hi; I'm currently evaluating Installshield2013. I have a question on creating merge modules. What I would like to be able to do is create a merge module that can be installed into different folders based on what type of installer it is being added to. :confused: What I mean by type of installer is : whether it is a full installer or an sdk. :eek: What I would like to do is have the merge module installed to a directory (C:\XXX\yyy\bin) if it is used in a full installer. one to be handed to our customers.
