Deploying a VB.Net App

I have been trying to figure out how to run Custom Actions in as .Net Setup
application. Specifically i want to create a MS Access DB at the end of the
installtion process for the application to use. I understand how to create a
dialog (I think), but i don't need to collect any data from the user just run
the code to create the DB. I also want to capture the installation directory
that the user actually provided, not necessesarily the default one i provide
with the install, because i want to install the DB in that same Directory
they chose. So does any one have or know of a good resource for creating
Setup Packages specifically how to call code to perform an external process.
Thanks
Gary
