    in your existing project, right-click on the solution item and select Add/New Project. Choose Setup project from the setup and deployment projects. You now have 2 projects in your solutoin, the original one and the setup project. To create a setup file, right click on the setup project and select Build. This creates a Windows installer file. Make sure you still have the normal project as your startup project. Hope this helps

    I think you mean the Package and Deploy wizard. Then do this:

    compile your project into an .exe . Open the P&D wizard and select the .vbp file from your project. THen click on the button for creating a package. It shows a wizard, just follow it. If you need to add extra files to your distribution you can add them there and edit the destination paths.

    When finished the Wizard gives you a setup file and a cab file.
