Cusomizing Deployment (Release Build)

I am new to Visual Basic.Net using the Standard Edition, which does not come
with a Deployment wizard, so I use the template on the File Systems Tab.

Everything works fine, and I have enabled the following (Where
"MyProgram.exe" is my new VB,net creation)

When the user runs Setup.exe, he is presented with the choice of installing
to \Program Files\MyProgram or a location of his choosing.
Setup copies all the files to that location, then creates a desktop icon and
start menu items.

My Questions:
1) Is there a way to force Myprogram.exe to run automatically at the end of
the setup,
without the user having to click on the MyProgram icon ?
2) Is there a way to have setup.exe display a Eula screen for the user to
accept BEFORE running the install?

thanx....joisey
