c# - Create program installer in Visual Studio 2005?

Question

I'm a web-guy stuck in "application world" in VS 2005. I created my windows forms program and want to give my end users the ability to install it (and some of it's resources) into a standard Program Files/App Directory location along with a start menu/desktop launcher.

The help files don't give any instructions (that I can find). This seems like such a trivial task to create an installer - but it's eluding me.

Any hints would be greatly appreciated!

Answer 1

You're looking for a "Setup Project" which should be under the "Other Project Types" -> "Setup and Deployment" category in the "New Project" dialog.
