Is it possible to pass variable to WIX localization file?

Viewed 8311

I need to use variable in WIX localization file WIXUI_en-us.wxl. I tried use it like this:

<String Id="Message_SomeVersionAlreadyInstalled" Overridable="yes">A another version of product $(var.InstallationVersionForGUI) is already installed</String>

But it doesn't work. And when I declared property and used it this way:

<String Id="Message_SomeVersionAlreadyInstalled" Overridable="yes">A another version of product [InstallationVersionForGUI] is already installed</String>

doesn't work either.

Where was I wrong?

Thanks for help and your time.
