Install path with Interbase Wise installer dont work

Installaware 7
I have imported my Inno Setup script which I have used to install Interbase. Everything seems to work until I tried to install Interbase to a path other than the default $PROGRAMFILES$\\Borland\\Interbase.
I start the Interbase installation by using the ib75_install.exe provided from CodeGear.
Run Program $TARGETDIR$\\ib75_install.exe /s/m=valuesClientServer.txt (WAIT)

The "ValuesClientServer.txt" is a text file with some parameters for the installation. It doesn't matter which path I give the $TARGETDIR$ variable Interbase always installs to C:\\Program Files\\Borland\\Interbase not to the $TARGETDIR$ in other words it takes the target path which the Interbase Wise installer has as default.

NOTE: With InnoSetup the above works perfect.

Any suggestion?

OK, I got it to work by running the CMD.EXE with the switch /c together with the same parameters as I have used previously in IA.

I don't know if this is a bug or not, but starting the Interbase Wise installation using IA "run program" or "run program as" functions doesn't seem to work using parameters in this case.
