Hi,

There is requirement to check for hard coded path to c:\program files folder in MSI packages. I have imported all the packages to Wise package studio 7.0 software manager. Is it possible to generate a report/query for this requirement using software manager?

Please let me know your thoughts.

Thanks

Are there specific tables

Are there specific tables where you need to look for the existence of hard coded values? If I recall correctly, the default settings do not import every table in the MSI and you may need to change this setting to get every table into the database. At this point, you should be able to use normal SQL queries on your database using the SQL tools rather than reports in Wise, which I do not believe are flexible enough to provide this information.
