Enhancement Request - Variables in Link Name

Postby tltaylor76 » Wed Dec 20, 2006 11:01 am

One feature that would be very nice would be the ability to support variables in the Link Name of a shortcut. Our installation supports multiple instances so previous instances get overwritten since this name is static.

Agreed, alas for reasons unknown to us, MSI has prohibited this.

Next best alternative is to use compiler variables.
