automating installer

[Pohihihi]

I want to automate evening builds. How can I do that using VSS or VS.Net?
I am looking for pointers rather the whole solution so I will have learning
experience as well.

thanks,
Po

There are numerous build management tools available. The one I usually
reccomend is CruiseControl.Net. This will provide continuous integration for
your development effort. CCNet can be configured to build every evening, in
addition, it will monitor a repository and do a build every time there is a
checkin so your team will know very quickly if they've broken something.

Best part - it's free.

FinalBuilder is an excellent tool, albeit not free like
CruiseControl.NET that Tim suggested.
