You shouldn't have to.

Source: "Tables\*.*"; DestDir:
"{localappdata}\BusinessName\AppName\Data"; Flags: ignoreversion;

The {localappdata} constant gets replaced by the path

C:\Users\username\AppData

And then the rest is provided by you in some fashion ...

Some of Jonny K's code got rather involved. I don't think current
versions of the Project Explorer use this code, or if they do they have
changed some things, but that would require upgrading your version of dBASE.
