I don’t understand your hole question but I think
if you check the TARGETDIR and SRCDIR constant
in your install script. It will help you.

Betreff: [ntdev] Need help in InstallShield scripts

Hi all,

I am currently creating the installsheild build. I have been successful in
making it work.

Now we have a requirement that some files (help files) be also copied during
installation. We do not want to add the help files as part of the
installation scripts.
I need to find out the full path of the location from where Setup.exe (my
installation startup executable). If I can find the ‘path’ then, I can copy
the help files from that ‘path’ to the application path.

If I try to get the path of the executable from the script, it shows some
folder within the \Temp folder. It looks like that installshield startups up
some EXEs from a temporary location to run the script.

Is it possible to find the path of the Setup.exe? Any Please help.

Regards
Sathya.
