I have a problem that I believe is simple, but I can't figure out how to
make it work.
I want to create a folder on the target machine with the Version property
in the name. How do I make this substitution happen? I've tried specifying
[Version] as the folder name in the file system view, but that doesn't seem
to work.
I'd also like to do the property substitution in other properties as well,
such
as the Title property ("My Title ([Version])"), so I can have the version
in there as well.
I admit to being relatively new to this installer. But what I want to do
seems
pretty straightforward, and I can't make it happen.
Any help?
Thanks,

The Windows Installer property name is actually ProductVersion. The folder
name needs to start with something that maps to a path, so
[ProgramFilesFolder][ManuFacturer]\ProductName]\[ProductVersion] should
work.
