There's a hole in the wall where I've been banging my head trying to
figure out why my install was failing (Image1.png) and I -finally- saw
the little tidbit that caused the problem, %_SB_ROOT% (Image2.png).

Arrrrrrgh!<g>

Also, I don't know if "rollback" was supposed to happen in this case
but even though I said to rollback it didn't. No biggie, well, except
for the hole in my wall - big head ya know?!<g>

Any chance we could get a user option to always enable the "Absolute
folder path specification" on the folder properties?

Hi Lee,

No problem. We can add a "Always enable the 'Absolute folder path
specification' option to Tools | Options...| General to always mark this
checkbox by default.

Of course, if you enable this option, then you have to make sure that you
are using a folder variable here. Otherwise, it will fail again <g>.

Sure... blame it all on ME!<g>

The option would be greatly appreciated. All my stuff uses variables
so for me, at least, it would save the wall.

I needed to add a folder to a 3rd party install last week and it took me a
while to figure it out;) I saw the %SB_ROOT% and remembered there was a
checkbox somewhere to turn it off, but it took a while to remember where
that checkbox was<g>

Best regards,
