Instaldir in a ini file

[NewsArchive]

I need an INI file to have a content as:
[CPR]
GLO:Tabulex = C.\programfiles\bbsoft\stamint\bbsoft.txt

But, as I do not know about the correct name is 'programfiles' or
'Programmer', I have a problem.
The easy way was to use [INSTALDIR], but it does not seem to work.
How to?

Do you need this at compile time (when you compile setup.exe) or installer
runtime (when you run setup.exe)?

At installer time
For now, I have decidet to make my own custom folder just for the ini file.
Thats too a bit more Virus (Sorry Vista!) friendly

What about the following (I assume you are using the "Write INI" function in
the installer):

[CPR]
GLO:Tabulex = %PROGRAMFILESDIR%\bbsoft\stamint\bbsoft.txt
