I am having some difficulty using the Modify option of an installation.
When you start the installer in Modify mode (from the ARP, click change)
The $TARGETDIR$ variable gets overwritten to be
$PROGRAMFILES$\\$TITLE$
In our original installation we are setting the default directory to be something else.
So if you use the modify option, all the new files are installed to the wrong directory.
The modify also uses the Altered Title that I specified in the code on the original installation (I added the Application Version to the Title as part of the original install)
Problem with Target Directory on Modify

This was an old issue in the pre 5.x product line. The 5.x line will not suffer this problem.
