Custom Inventory for Managed Installs
I am in the habit of always creating a custom inventory rule (typically on the executable) for Managed Installs.
This prevents an MI from re-targeting a machine that has the application, but has been updated to a later version.
Anyway, we are running in a mixed XP and Win 7 64 environment.
Typically, I use "FileExists(C:\Program Files\Example\Example.exe) to validate the app is installed.
What I need is to be able to check both "FileExists(C:\Program Files\Example\Example.exe) OR (C:\Program Files(x86)\Example\Example.exe) to validate both XP and Win 7 64 in the x86 dir.
Suggestions?

OK, read the FAQ jack [:)] I answered my own question by reading the Admin Guide, ha! Yes, OR statements work
FileExists(C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Office\Office14\visio.exe) OR FileExists(C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office14\visio.exe)
searches both locations for 32 bit and 64 bit OS's
FileExists(C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Office\Office14\visio.exe) OR FileExists(C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office14\visio.exe)
searches both locations for 32 bit and 64 bit OS's
