Subject: Unresolved reference to symbol 'Directory:INSTALLFOLDER" - AppOutputFromHeat

I'm trying to fix an installer for my Office add-in project, and am getting this error from AppOutputFromHeat. I've been mostly cutting/pasting from a project that has a working installer, and must have missed something somewhere.

At the top of AppOutputFromHeat I've got the following fragment:

    <Fragment>
        <DirectoryRef Id="INSTALLFOLDER">
            <Directory Id="Data" Name="Data" />
        </DirectoryRef>
    </Fragment>

And the relevent section in my product.wxs is

    <Directory Id="TARGETDIR" Name="SourceDir">
      <Directory Id="ProgramFilesFolder">
        <Directory Id="FR" Name="FR">
          <Directory Id="INSTALLFOLDER" Name="$(var.PRODUCTNAME)" />
        </Directory>
      </Directory>
      <Directory Id="ProgramMenuFolder">
        <Directory Id="ApplicationProgramsFolder" Name="FR"/>
      </Directory>
    </Directory>

Thanks for any help!
