    Very Basic Deployment Question

    This might appear dense.The forum search results didn't address such a basic matter.

    Suppose I have an extremely simple windows form app. (1 form)

    I am trying to deploy it for use on another computer.

    I go File > Add Project > New Project > Setup & Deployment Projects > Setup Project > OK

    I haven't got the Setup Wizard here as I am using the Standard Edition.

    Now I see a File System Window containing 3 folders, Application Folder, User's Desktop, User's Programs Menu for target machine and I am not sure how to proceed.

    I tried a few things like opening the User's Desktop folder, right clicking, choosing Add > Project Output > Primary Output

    If I Save All and Exit, the file WindowsApplication1.exe in \bin runs if I move it to another location - no installer created though. Is that it? What if I have an Access database in \bin?

    Try File > Add Project > New Project > Setup & Deployment Wizard

    You can also add your mdb files with ur setup.

    Yeah, I was looking for that as it was described in a tutorial but it doesn't come with the standard edition which I have.
