[RESOLVED] Quick: Installer file name change?

[wolf99]

Hi Folks
Its been a long time since I used VB, and it was VB 6 amateur at that!
Just started using VB 2010 express and Im ready to publish/deploy (whats the dif?) my application.

I ran down through the project properties and set things that looked like they needed setting, but after I publish the installer produced is rather anonymously called "setup"
How do I change this to MyProgram_Setup

Also how can I publish without a manifest file? I dont see other application installers wandering around with attendant manifest files, so I assume this can be got rid of somehow through publication/deployment/compile settings

Thanks for any help it's much appreciated

Nobody can answer this?
Seriously?
I thought this would be a quick answer Q!
(Bump)

Not a user of the publish myself (use Inno setup), but just had a quick search and came up with this:

Bizarrely, looks like its not possible.

Many thanks Enrico
That is pretty strange alright! Even the most basic of C compilers usually allow the programmer to specify the names for the files it generates...
