hello there
I have a create a VB .NET application that works fine when I run it.
I built the project, copied the exe files and of course if did not work.
how do I create an installation package to be able to distribute this
application?

Add an "Installer project" to your solution. It should be fairly intuitive
from there.
 
unfortunately I am very new to VB specially .NET
I tried to add a reference to installer Class but that didn't seem to be
working, and the properties were almost nothing
can I take more of your time and get any further info, or where to read
about this thing?
Regards
Sameh
 
It's not a reference, but a new project. File -> New -> Project. Then from
the Project selection, click on "Setup and Deployment Projects". Make sure
the radio button "Add to Solution" is selected, give it a name, and then
click "OK".
 
Thanks very much
that was very helpful
