Create setup using VB 6.0 which can be customized to default path

we are trying to create setup using VB 6.0 which can be customized to default path. Could some one help me in changing the setup installation directory in VB6.0 by reading the environment variables/registry values?

Is it the P&D wizard you are using?
In setup.lst file you can edit the path like this:

[Setup]
Title=My App
DefaultDir=$(ProgramFiles)\My company\My App

The $(ProgramFiles) part comes from the environment variables.

There is a simple software (share ware) it is free fro personal use,

It helps you to build your own setup screens and images and decide the path for instalation,
where to put dependencies files and even create registrey keys
