Simple Setup project. Im lost

I have built several very simple setup projects where I just install a
single application. I am using the installation tools that come with Visual
Studio 2005.
This setup I want to build has 2 applications, a windows forms proj and a
Windows Service proj (which has a project installer added).
So far, I have used the setup designer to add an extra dialog to the Start
section of the User interface between "Welcome" and "Installation Folder".
It's called "Checkboxes (A)".
On this dialog I have made checkbox1 visible and the remainder invisible.
Checkbox1 gives the option to "install service application" and I realize
that somewhere I should be checking the value of CHECKBOXA1, but where/when
i do that or what/how I tell to "ok, go install my service" is lost on me
atm.
I'm absolutely baffled on how to carry on. I've done web searches (Im very
poor on knowing the correct terms on which to search), I've read articles on
Custom Actions which have just confused me more as the authors seem to
assume a certain level of knowledge or they give examples of things I could
have worked out myself.
If someone can give me simple explanation of how to solve this I'd be very
grateful.

thank you
Claire
