Re: priority paths

Hi,

This is from the Help File:

Priority Paths
The paths that should first be checked during the file search separated by semicolons. If you chose "Priority Search Paths Only" in the Look in field, these paths will be the only ones searched. This is a great option to use if you have an idea of possible locations of a file because it can drastically increase the speed of the search.

So basically you could define two priority search paths, one in Spanish, and one in English.

mark.

Re: priority paths

Try using the variable "%SrcDrv%" as in:

%SrcDrv%/folder/folder to search

At run-time the variable will be replaced with the letter of the drive the autorun.exe file is runing from. You could also use "%SrcDir%", that way you can test this from your hard drive, too. I think most of us use "%SrcDir%".
