How do I provide a UI to allow a user to specify an install path using WiX?

I need help with the question above. Also, how can I ensure that the application installs for all users using the machine? I haven't really used WiX before.

Okay, I got the solution. I added the WixUIExtension dll as a reference and then used the following before the project closing tag:

<Property Id="WIXUI_INSTALLDIR" Value="INSTALLLOCATION" ></Property>
<UIRef Id="WixUI_InstallDir"/>

It works perfectly.
