Xavi xavi via .NET 247

Hi everyone!!
i have some questions about .net and its setup project:

1-i want to create an uninstall option once my application has been installed. What i need for do this?
2-Can i remove the banner text that there is in a dialog box inside the option of User interface??
3-Once i have installed my application with my setup i want that several files (with its format) are to be open by default with my application. How i can to do this in my setup project?(associate files with an .exe)
4-i want to reinstall my application over the older of this. When i'm doing this, a dialog tells me that i have to remove the older with control panel. i don't want this.i want that the newer overwrites the older.

Thanks
 
1. You get uninstall for free from setup projects. You can use it by
launching the MSI again or through add remove programs.
2. Yes if I understand you correctly, using the property grid after
selecting any dialogs allows you to edit the text and images contained
within the UI.
3. You can use the file type editor to define extensions that match you
application, by specifying an extension and an open action.
4. Unfortunetly when you launch a new MSI it does not include the
information that the last MSI included, by launching from the control panel
a cached version of the MSI is used to make sure it uninstalls properly.
