An install exe is a little over my level, but I have made a succesful step-by-step installer that buils sql tables, sets values, etc - everything that is needed to get going.  It is available to dissect form my open source project (in the setup folder) http://slickticket.codeplex.com/ - if you want to see what the finished product looks like, just check out the walkthrough video to see how it works: http://slick-ticket.com/videos.aspx

Hi,

We can create Web Setup project to install web application.

You can add Web Setup project to your solution and add your ASP.NET project to Web Setup project's input.

For the detailed steps, please refer to Scott's article on http://weblogs.asp.net/scottgu/archive/2007/06/15/tip-trick-creating-packaged-asp-net-setup-programs-with-vs-2005.aspx

 

Thanks.
