Is it possible to save the target directory into the registry when using MS
VS Installer 1.1?

Thanks in advance!

Cheers, Todd

Sure create a registry entry and for it's value use the indirection
operators, [], to indicate it should find the value of what the label points
to. You can use it to store property values too.

regkey111 [INSTALLDIR] <- the install directory path is stored
regkey112 [ALLUSERS] <- the value of the ALLUSERS property
regkey113 [!mydll.dll] <- the path to and name of the
installed file
