You have to create a Setup Project...

Add a new project to your solution and select the 'Setup and Deployment
Projects' project type instead of the VB ones, from here you should be able
to select a 'Setup Project'.

That should get you started.

Hope this helps.

jt,

I have the same problem, I'm missing the "Setup Wizard" icon from the
Templates pan. Do you mind telling me how to get it on the pan.

Thank you for your time
