    Question The Icon Groups section on Setup.Lst

    Hi,
    How to modify Icon Groups section on Setup.Lst if my target file is not in $(AppPath)?
    Here was what I did and it didn't work

    [$(Programs)]
    Icon1="myApp1.exe"
    Title1=MyApp1
    StartIn1=$(AppPath)\myPath1
    Icon2="myApp2.exe"
    Title2=MyApp2
    StartIn2=$(AppPath)\myPath2

    Thanks in advance

    So you are installing your exes in a sub folder of the installation path?

    You can install more than one exe in the app path, is there a reason why you are trying to install them in seperate sub folders and not in the installation path?

    They have sub folder with same folder name but include different files. So I can not install exes
    in a sub folder of the installation path?

    Re: The Icon Groups section on Setup.Lst

    If the files have different filenames then there is no reason I can see as to why they could not be in the same folder(s). As for can it be done I am sure it can just never tried it. The source code for the setup generator is included so it is possibel to modify it in many different ways.

    For example I have modified mine to read additional values from an ini file and in some cases the installer will prompt the user asking if they want to place a shortcut on the desktop and/or it they want it added to the startup menu.
