And of course if Ioannis is interested in applications that do not use the
.Net framework, VS 2003 can be used as a great tool to write native C++
applications.

Is there any option within a "Setup Project", or must I use batch files
and other similar embarrassments? :-)

That I don't know, as I don't use VS's Setup Projects. Someone else here
might know, or you might have better luck on a newsgroup like:
microsoft.public.windows.msi.

There is no built in way to do this with setup projects. You can write a
custom action and invoke that as part of an MSI install, but I am quite
certain there is no great way this is exposed in the setup projects.
If you want to do anything more than very vanilla setup, you should probably
look at a commercial installer product.
