Suite Wizard - Launch a PDF from Support Files
I'm trying to get a button to launch our Installation Guide from a button in the Suite Installation Wizard.
The button is fine, I'm just not sure how to use the {Open InstallGuidePDF} property to reference a PDF File in the Support Dir.
I added the .PDF to Support Files under English, and I tried setting the InstallGuidePDF property to [SUPPORTDIR]InstallGuide.pdf but it tells me the file can't be found when I press the button during installation.
I can see the PDF file in the %Temp%\{GUID}\1033\ folder when the Suite has started.
Does anyone know how to get this to work?
For more Suite properties, see Suite Property Reference .
Try SETUPSUPPORTDIR (one of the available Suite properties) instead of SUPPORTDIR (which is not available in Suites).

Thanks Debbie,
That did work with a little more modification. I had to move the file out of the English Files subdirectory of Support Files and into the Language Independent folder, because the file was going into a \1033\ subdirectory of the [SETUPSUPPORTDIR] and not in the main folder.
I also had to include a \ after the directory property, which normally isn't necessary in an MSI, but appears to be needed here.
Thanks again,
Kevin
