All in one: vb.net + prerquisite software installer

Did you look in this web site? There should be plenty of useful articles in this web site; if not then someone needs to write some articles and the authors that submit articles to this web site are eager to find fresh topics to wsrite about. Most everything I know about setup projects I know form reading the MSDN; the main problem with the MSDN articles is that there is so much to read.

I will tell you this much. You can create a setup project and use the setup project wizard to create a setup project in just a few minutes. My experience is with VS 2008; VS 2010 has probably improved on the facility.

You do not want a ClickOnce installer.
