RE: [WiX-users] product ID

Yes:
 
 <Product 
  Id="$(var.ProdCode)" 
  UpgradeCode="$(var.ProdUpgradeCode)" 
  Manufacturer="Microsoft Corporation" 
  Language="1033" 
  Name="$(var.ProdName) $(var.ProdVer)"
  Version="$(var.ProdVer)">

It's not a great error message, but I think the problem is the lowercase-i
in "id."

I'm trying to set my Product ID to an environment variable

 

            <Product id="$(env.PRODUCTGUID)" . >

 

I'm getting the following error from candle

 

fatal error CNDL0031: The '$' character, hexadecimal value 0x24, cannot
begin with a name.

 

can you use variables in this location?
