Installer Package Registry Keys

I am creating an installer for a solution with multiple executables. I want to store the installation location of each program in the registry so that each program can start the others. Any ideas anyone?

I found a solution to the problem. You just place [TARGETDIR] in the registry value, and add filenames if necessary.
