VS 2008 SP1
I am deploying my application. As the .Net framework needs to be installed on the user's computer. Is it possible to pack the .Net framework into my executable setup.exe?
This will make my setup.exe big. However, the client doesn't mind.
Recently I created one windows form application and also created setup project using VS2008.My application works with external software, which needs to be available on the PC.I want to bundle this external application installer in my installer, so that I can check if it is already installed and if not then install it and then install my application.I figured out how to work with pre-requisites that Setup project identifies such as .net framework?

View 1 RepliesMy application requires access to be installed on the computer or at least the MS Access runtime. Is their a way to include that with the application to check for that component/resource or install it if it isn't?

View 2 RepliesI have developed a windows forms desktop application using vb.net 2005. It is installed on client computers using a setup package.
One of the clients wants to redistribute the setup package to other users.
He wants to provide the users with an initialization file containing the database server name which they will be using, so that it is available when the application is installed. They are apparently incapable of physically typing in a server name themselves after installing the application.
Is there any way I can include a separate file with the setup package which the application can find after it has been installed?

View 3 RepliesI made a little program for Hobby-use, and I like it to be installed by an installer. There's an installer program (Windows Installer 3.1?) deliverd with Visual Studio 2008 but that does not do the job completely.

If not, is there a free or low cost, simple to use (no scripting) installer program what will do the job? At last: Is there a version of .NET Framework 3.5 that does not require downloading during the user's setup procedure?

Localization = German
Property in the Deployment Project's Properties. The UI of the generated setup is German, so all's fine there. However, the setup installs the ENGLISH .Net Framework. I have not found any way around this.The problem are at least twofold:

2. It's a big flaw to see UI inconsistencies (i.e. the UI and Setup of the application is German while the NET Framework shows certain elements in English, e.g. the DisplayName property of cultures)how can I get the project to install the localized .NET Framework?
