In Window's program removal applet, my program shows what's apparently
the [PRODUCTNAME]. I would prefer it showed the [APPTITLE], which
includes my company name. Can I control that?

What you can do is to set [PRODUCTNAME] to [APPTITLE]. Then the name in the
"Add/Remove Programs" panel appears as [APPTITLE].

Of course, all the [PRODUCTNAME] text in the dialogs and message boxes
appear as [APPTITLE] now.

For example, in the following Welcome dialog text:

"Welcome to the [PRODUCTNAME] Setup Wizard."

If you would like to display the "real" product name (without your company
name) then you can create a new compiler variable (e.g. [REAL_PRODUCTNAME])
and set it to your product name. Then change all relevant instances (in
Text and Messages) of [PRODUCTNAME] to [MY_PRODUCTNAME] and you are done.

Yeesh! I though there would be a simpler option. <g> I may go that
route regardless, though.
