I am trying to automate the configuration of packages in DelphiXE3.

When I try to add this registry value name $(BDSBIN)\MyLibrary.bpl FB tries to expand $(BDSBIN) which is not what I want.

How can I stop this expansion?

Surrounding with quotes doesn't seem to work.

Thanks for your help.

You need to disable recursive variable expansion : [http://help.finalbuilder.com/variable\_evaluation\_and\_recurs.htm](http://help.finalbuilder.com/variable_evaluation_and_recurs.htm)   
  
 Use $(!BDSBIN) - the ! disabled recursive expansion.
