FormatPropertyValue

Read-Write Boolean Property

Gets or sets the check box in the Formatted column in the Property Manager view. The check box that lets you indicate whether the value is a formatted expression that contains property names, environment variable references, or other special strings that you want to be resolved at run time. The run-time resolution occurs early at run time, before the installation executes the actions in the OnBegin event.

To leave the property value as is at run time, set this property equal to False. Square brackets and other characters have no special meaning.

To replace the formatted expressions at run time, set this property equal to True.

To learn about the syntax that is available for formatted expressions, see Using Formatted Expressions that Advanced UI and Suite/Advanced UI Installations Resolve at Run Time.
