Package and Deployment Wizard 1

[Neusch]

The packages that I create using the package and deployment wizard always cause the application shortcuts to get installed in the Start menu under the profile of the logged-in user, not under the "All Users" profile.

How can I get the shortcut to install under the "All users" profile rather than the profile of the logged in user?

>Put your database in a sub directory called "database".
>Change the source path of your database to "./database" instead of the full path shown.
>Then modify your SETUP.LST file and change the line for your database from "$(AppPath)" to "$(AppPath)\database".
>Then the database will be in the right place no matter where it is installed.

Can anyone help?

I need a way to allow the user to choose where they want the necessary files installed (i.e. database, reports etc)(i.e. drive and path) using the package and deployement wizard.

Also I need a way to code access to the new locations of the files i.e no hard-coding. The reason is that all applications are installed on one drive and all files that are written to cannot be on the same share and therefore have to be in another location. I want to let the user decide where they want it, and if they decide to move the file, the application will know where to find the file.

Is it possible? ...Chargrams
