.net 2.0 and my application DLL

[=?Utf-8?B?Sm9obiBTY290dA==?=]

Hey there,

Can anyone please refer to some good article about creating a WebSetup
project for a .NET 2.0 application.

Right now I add a new WebSetup project to an existing web application and
when I've added the "Project Output" from my main application to my WebSetup
application....basically all i get is a copied website....Isn't the idea of
using a WebSetup project to separate your presentation files from you
code....meaning that your site should be compiled and put into the bin when
you create your MSI?

One more question...why in 2.0 does Visual Studio 2005 not create a
application dll until you "Deploy" the application....I've tried deploying an
application and then creating a WebSetup using the precompiled, deployed code
and it won't let me create a setup using precompiled code...any
thoughts/suggestions would greatly appreciated.
