Hi
When producing a Setup package in Visual Studio, the default is to
create a Windows Installer MSI file and also the bootstrapper
setup.exe file. Previously I have turned off the creation of the .exe
file as I dont need it, but on my latest project I cannot find the
option anywhere, or any references on google.

How do I turn it off???
Thanks
Kevin

1. Open the setup solution
2. Right click on setup project and click on Properties.
3. In properties dialog click on prerequisites.
4. Unckech the option "Create setup program to install prerequisite
components."

Thanks thats brilliant. I think my other projects were converted from
2003, so perhaps it was in a more obvious place in there.
Thanks again
Kevin
