Hi,
I am not sure where else to post this, and I did not find a forum for VisualStudio.
I need to set the defaultlocation for my install to the directory the application already lives in. During the installation, i write this value to the registry so I would just need to read this key after the initial install. I imagine this would be with a custom action, but i do not see how to do this. I already have a command line tool that will return to me the install path, if it exists, so I just need to know when to kick this action off (I do not see a custom action in VS2005 for pre-install)
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks,
RalphTrent
