launch the installed application immediatley after completing setup

Can any one guide me how to launch the installed application immediatley after the Finished screen button clicked. Once the user clicks the finished screen "Close" button, i need to launch the installed application. I tried with installer class. Sample code is given below.I have created a class library and within that an installer class. I tried with the afterInstall event, but its not working.

namespace ClassLibrary1
{
[RunInstaller(true)]
public partial class Installer1 : Installer
{

public event InstallEventHandler AfterInstall;

public Installer1()
{
InitializeComponent();
AfterInstall += new InstallEventHandler(AfterInstallEventHandler);
}

private void AfterInstallEventHandler(object sender, InstallEventArgs e)
{
Process.Start(@"C:\Program Files\Surisoft\SampleSetup\SampleApplication.exe", "/q");
}
}
}

Is there any other way to reach this requirement. Please help me im strugling.

Regards
Mukilan.P.S
