Search for 3rd party installation path

I want to search for an installation of SAS 9.1 and place a dll file in the subdirectory: " .....\SAS 9.1\core\sasexe\"
I've tried to set up a search for this path and then install to a property-based file location, but I'm not sure that the search is returning the full path to this folder ( such as "C:\Program Files\SAS\SAS 9.1\core\sasexe\"). The documentation of folder searches is a little confusing to me. Is there any way to do a folder search that will give me such a path?

Thanks in advance.

Hi,

The search process returns the complete path of a file or a folder provided that file or folder exists. If not it will be returned the empty string.

For more details on how to set up a search please see following forum post:

Please let me know if you encounter any problems.

Best regards,
