Naming a Setup Project

Bry
Is there any way of modifying the ProductName in my setup project
dialogs that doesn't involve me having to rename my setup project?

I have an application named 'Foo', and the main project within the
soloution is 'Foo'. I'm trying to make my setup project use the name
'Foo' for product name, but I can only seem to make it use the name of
my setup project.

As the main project is called Foo, I can't rename my setup project to
Foo?

Is there any way of editting this in VS .net 2005, or am I going to
have to resort to using Orca or some other MSI software?

Click on the "Properties" for the Setup Project in VS.NET [I am using
2003, should be something similar in 2005], you should see a list of
editable properties including ProductName, which you can change.
