setup and deployment projects

can anyone point me to a tutorial on how to create customized instalations?
how to include msde2000 in my instalation, how to put files in temp folder
and delete them afterwards, how to use those ui screens (checkboxes,
radiobuttons), custom actions, and other stuff... maybe even add framework
instalation in my app's setup file...

the biger tutorial the better. thanks :-)

Maybe you should take one step at a time? Most books on computer languages
are bloody awful in terms of didactics. ISBN 0-672-32122-X C# Unleashed,
by Mayo (SAMS) (very thick book) is not the worst of them.. Else
ISBN 0-596-00376-5 Learning C#, by Jese Liberty (O'Reilly) (thinner book).

Cheers.

(Deploying Applications and Components) can be a good start (watch for line
breaks). If you do a search at MSDN for "Deployment" you will see a number
of other articles, but unfortunately, they are not grouped together. You
must be aware, though, that deployment capabilities of Visual Studio.NET are
very limited. I mean, if you want to do something beyond basic check boxes
or radio buttons (like displaying feature trees), you will have to use Wise
or InstallShield. Not sure if any other vendor offers MSI-based installation
tools (I really wish somone did).
