Hello everyone
Using visual studio .net, we can easily create a setup project. But I don't know what to use to locate the location that the program was called from. For example: If the install file is executed from the CD, or Floppy disk, or whatever, then what to do or use to know that the install file is from CD, floppy or whatever. Thanks for any help.
Are you asking how to know whether the application was installed from a floppy disk, a CD or a remote shared folder ?
Why do you need to know ?
Are you trying to prevent the same sort of thing which was asked in this thread ?
The biggest problem I've found is that the standard installer wants to do all the "install on demand" business. What a pain !
Read the other thread if this really is the issue.

Yes I want know the where the application is installed from.
The reason I want to know is that a file that comes with the installation is big. I don't want this file attached with the setup file because the compiling takes too long. Plus, I constantly modify the setup file and do the re-compiling.
