Setup and Deployment Question

Hello,

I've made a Setup and Deployment project with a single textbox asking
for the customer's name. I've set this textbox's "Edit1Property" to
"CUSTNAME".

I then opened up the Registry interface of the project, and added a
property there with the value [CUSTNAME]. When I install and provide
the customer name, the value is not stored in the registry.

Is this all wrong? Do I need to create a custom action? If so, how do
I access CUSTNAME from the custom action?

Regards, and thanks in advance,

Jim

It works for me... I tried the below.

Edit1Label : CustomerName:
Edit1Property : CUSTNAME

Registery entry under HKEY_USER\Software\Company1
(Name) - CUSRTNAME
(Value) - [CUSTNAME]

Let me know what u are doing different!!
