Here's the installscript funciton I wrote to delete the start menu shortcuts using the old company name when a folder structures were updated to reflect the new company name.
This worked with Installshield 11.
The following function was added to a .rul file. A custom action was then created for the funciton. The custom action was then added to the execute sequence.
function DeleteOldCompanyNameShorcuts(hMSI)
begin
//Errors should not be highlighted as this function will be called multiple times
// on subsequent calls there should be nothing left to delete
// Also, there may not be anything to delete in the first place
//default group type is common
//Delete old company name shortcuts from all users menu
DeleteProgramFolder(FOLDER_PROGRAMS ^ "Old Company Name");
//Delete old company name shortcuts from current users menu
ProgDefGroupType(PERSONAL);
DeleteProgramFolder(FOLDER_PROGRAMS ^ "Old Company Name");
end;
