Distributing components with application

Hi all,

Could any one help me out that how can I ship additional components
with my .net 1.1 windows application. The components will only be
installed if they are not installed already. The setup MSI has to be
initiated only once and all prerequisite should be installed.

I want to ship .Net Framework 1.1 and WSE 2.0 msi with my application
setup.

Custom installer. Test for installed components, fire off installation
proceedure if not installed. If in an MSI format, you simply determine
whether installed and fire off the MSI. HOpe this helps!

Hi,

Thanks for the response :). Yes, this will help out but I don't know
how to create this custom installer and write code for component check
and msi fire off as you mention. Can you help me in that?
