.net vb proj questions (simple basic ones)

I am developing a simple .net vb proj and have a few questions that Id be
very grateful if someone more experienced than me could answer.

Firstly, is it possible to set overwrite options when distributing an
installer package as I dont always see the files getting overwritten on XP
pro machine? I've tried setting various flags.

Secondly, can I choose not to have an installshield so basically it will
never allow an uninstall option, I know how to get it to leave files behind
though but Id like to to always be prompted to install and never say that
you have to go to add/remove to uninstall it first as thats annoying.

Thanks
Tony
