Im not entirely sure if this is the right spot for this question or not, but I guess Im going to ask it anyhow.

In the packaging wizard, when it gets to the point where you can determine where additional files are installed, it gives me a number of macros that I can use to determine what directory. My problem is that I do not want to install these files into any dir that the macros will allow, and cannot figure out how to do this without using the macros. I attempted to modify the SETUP.LST file by hard coding the correct install dir for the files, but am continuously getting an "invalid command-line parameter" error. How can I get around this?
 
You could install them into the default folder and then have a routine that runs the first time only that looks for the relevant files and moves them to the place where you want them to be.
 
that could work, or some variation of it. Thanks for the idea.
