Variables In EULA and License

Tried putting in #VARIABLE# or $VARIABLE$ into the EULA text for example ... doesn't seem to get expanded.
Is there a way to insert compiler variable values into those two documents?
TIA

Here is something you can do:
1.- First of all, create your license.txt file (make sure it is a plain text file) with the variables you want in the form $Variable$.
2.- Add license.txt as a support file in your project.
3.- Edit the memo control in the "licensecheck" dialog in the following way:
"Receives Information:" <none>
"Writes Values to Variable:" TestVar
4.- In the MSI script, before the License Dialog is shown, include the following two lines:
Code: Select all
Set Variable TestVar to
Read from Text File #READALL\\$SUPPORTDIR$\\license.txt into Variable TestVar
I hope this was helpful
