Usually "file:///" means that the file was installed through (local) UNC which sounds weird.
The directory path also looks "invalid".
You need to use formatting to point to the File table entry.
Make sure the component holding the file has it as a keypath then use [primary key of the file in the File table].
For long file name use [#LrWsNetClient.dll] and for short use [!LrWsNetClient].
This will be resolved to the folder path the component will be installed to + the filename.

For a useful list of formatted data strings, search for "Formatted" in the SDK

That directory must be listed in the directory table
so you would use [BPM] (possibly) you'd need to look in the directory table to determine the actual name

ORIGINAL: timmsieFor file entries, always use the formatted filename, as Kim shows in his post. You're then guaranteed to always get the right path entered.

timmsie,
Thats true; however it's not always that the entry exists in the Directory table for any reasons which in that case removes the possibility to refer to the directory (property). Also if the registry value must not end with a trailing backslash then one would need to ex. author a custom action to remove the character or either use "[ProgramFileFolder]HP\BPM" or "[HP]BPM" if HP is an entry in the Directory table.

hey thanks dear,
i solved that hardcoding. first i was used [BPM], but becauce there are no backslash present so i used [InstallDir]BPM.
Once again thanks [:)]
