  • Trouble with %ProductVer%

    I am an installation to update our software. Depending on what version of the software the customer is using I need to do different things. The version being used is stored in the registry. I am attempting to use this:

    TheVer = Registry.GetValue(HKEY_CURRENT_USER, "\\Software\\ECC\\GLOBE", "version", true);
    SessionVar.Set("%ProductVer%",TheVer);

    %ProductVer% , as far as I can tell, isn't getting a value. For example, I have tested the installation by hardcoding TheVer to a value and the rest of the installation works fine.

    I am hoping this is a matter of me doing something stupid and just not seeing it due to over staring at the issue. I am also assuming that %ProductVer% can be set this way. I use this:

    Usually registry data is stored in HKLM, not HKCU - unless your product indeed is installing only into the user's profile.
