Is the name "Program Files" hard coded in an InstallShield Project?
We have customers in Spain, Italy and Germany.
Each country has a different name for the directory that we call "Program Files".
How can I make sure that this is not hard-coded in my InstallShield project?

Also, where in the registry is this name located?
 
I'd ask an admin to file this under webmastering and programming. However, to answer your question; Installshield should use the windows variable %programfiles%, but I wouldn't be surprised if it didn't. InstallShield and it's ilk still haven't figured out that 90% of the installers of the apps out there want an unattended install.
