Use the Browse for Directory dialog box to browse to a directory, create a new directory, rename a directory, or delete a directory.
Dialog Box Options
Destination Directories
This field lists all of the currently available destination directories. You can select, create, rename, or delete directories in this field.
Selecting a Directory
To select a directory:
| 1. | Click on a directory to select it. |
| 2. | Click OK. |
Creating a New Directory
To create a new directory:
| 1. | Select a directory or the Destination Computer and press the Insert key, or right-click and select New from the context menu. This creates a directory beneath the selected folder or beneath the Destination Computer. |
| 2. | Type the directory name. |
| 3. | Provide a directory identifier, if necessary. |
Renaming a Directory
To rename a directory:
| 1. | Select a directory or the Destination Computer and press F2, or right-click and select Rename from the context menu. |
| 2. | Type the new directory name. Note that you cannot rename predefined directories. |
| 3. | Rename the directory identifier, if necessary, to be consistent with the directory’s new name. |
Deleting a Directory
To delete a directory:
Select a directory and press the Delete key, or right-click and select Delete from the context menu.
Note that you cannot delete predefined directories.
Note: When you delete a directory, any subdirectories beneath the selected directory are also deleted.
You can use the Directory Identifier field to provide a user-friendly name for a directory. For example, if you have a directory—ProgramFilesFolder\MyProgram\Graphics\Jpg—you can use just JPG to identify the directory path. The Component Destination field in the IDE displays the path as {JPG} [ProgramFilesFolder]MyProgram\Graphics\Jpg.
Note: The directory identifier must be a valid Windows Installer identifier. For features, the directory identifier must contain all capital letters.
