Deployment project - Custom Action

[runningdog]

Hi


What I want to do is execute a cdm script created from a DataBase project
with the Create Command File option. It doesn't appear that I can call this
cmd file directly as a custom action. So I have created a Custom Action
project and added it to my Deployment project. I pass the necessary
parameters to it from CustomActionData. I can't work out how to access
[TARGETDIR] to call the script.


TIA Steve

Hi Steve,

Thanks for posting.

To pass TARGETDIR, we need to use the following format:

/name="[TARGETDIR]\"

Please make sure that we do not miss any quotation marks or slash. You may
also refer to the following link:

I hope this helps.
