WPS 6.0: add a file to c:\
I have create an msi for Travel Control with WPS 6.0. During testing i noticed that the application needs a file in c:\ which the application creates the first time when it's been executed.
I copied that particular file to my packaging machine, opened the msi with WPS and wanted to add this file to the destination computer but noticed there is no c:\ or root is the destination pane.
Can anybody tell me how i can add this file to c:\ in WPS?
Every help will be appreciated.

Do like this
First check what is the parentdir for sourcedir in DIRECTORY table(It will be TARGETDIR)
Add a new component from setupeditor in components tab--->give the component name and in DIRCTORY give TARGETDIR and continue--->add the file from source path--->assighn it to a feauture and compile.
In the FILES view in installation expert the file should come under destination computer

I tried the [%systemdrive] option but as i'm not an experienced packager and have limited knowledge i ended up with the wrong result (C:\[%systemdrive]\file).
Here are the changes i made to my msi:
- open the msi with WPS
- in installation expert - files - i added the file from my computer to the windows directory in the destination pane
- in setup expert - components tab - i rightclicked the file - selected details - in the components details from the file i put [%systemdrive] in directory
- compiled the msi

There is no SOURCEDIR entry in the DIRECTORY table. SOURCEDIR is only specified as the defaultdit in the TARGETDIR entry.
