deployment project

I have a web project
I was asked to add a deployment project to generate .msi
The problem is, that I need to have some custom path / location inside
the web.config of the application.
So what i'd like to know is how do I make an "extra step" inside the
install package with something like a textbox + browse button for
example.
So when you start the installation of my web project you will be forced
to enter a path in there, which I will later use to add (maybe replace
- token .. doesn't matter) to the web.config file.

Does it make sense?
I am still investigating .. .couldn't find anything useful

thanks

Hi, we have an existing solution which contains a bunch of C# projects and one weployment project. Initially I did not have the web deployment project installed on my computer so I downloaded and installed it. I now have the option to create a new deployment project when I go File- New Project so I assume that it has installed correctly.
