Hi,
I'm trying to create a Setup project that can add some registry
settings during the installation. I'm using the Registry editor to specify
these registry entries.

The registry (string)values that I'm trying to add need to be set to
the computer name of the machine on which the installation is being done.

Could any one please suggest on how to get the registry value to be
equal to the computer name of that machine during installation?

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you.

Ravi.
 
Worked out an approach for this! I have created a C# .NET executable that
reads the system name and writes it to a registry value. I then included this
executable as a Custom Action towards the end of the installation.
