Auto Update

Hello

When we build a setup project.

As long as we use the same setup.msi, it will give you the option of repair
& remove.

However, if I send them an update, it tells you have an instance of the
program installed, remove it by going to add / remove.

Is there a way I can give them a remove option in my updated setup.msi as
well ?
Or even better yet.

How can I create Auto Update feature in my application?

That would help a lot!

Thanks
