Setup - C# / C Sharp

Demetri

Does anyone know how to create a custom dialog for a setup project? My c#
solution contains several components, each are optional for a user to
install. Therefore, I would like to present the user with a treeview control
or listbox control with the choices for them to select which components to
install.

Demetri,
I stand corrected if wrong, but I don't believe there is a way to add a
custom dialog to a Visual Studio.Net Setup project other than the "stock"
dozen or so choices that are available from the User Interface View and the
"Add Dialog" context menu.

Most likely, to create a custom dialog you will need to switch to
Installshield, Wise, or one of the other "more complete" setup offerings.
