Hi,
I am on a Win2K platform. I tried adding a file in Component Desginer and
set the destination path to "C:\WINNT\myfile" . However, whenever I generate
the image with Target Designer, the "WINNT" path is automatically renamed to
"Windows".

I know there is a way in Target Designer settings to change system root to
"C:\WINNT" instead of "C:\WINDOWS". But I don't want to change the system
root path, I only want to keep certain files in "C:\WINNT". Is there anyway
to do that in Component Designer?
 
Hi Jim,

In the path of your file use %24%\WINNT. This will work while C:\WINNT does
not. I tested it here with a sample component. There must be something that
the tools do when they process your component (or any component referencing
the hardcoded C:\WINNT). Weird.

HTH,
Brad
