Hi! Is there a way to package registry file only? I can not seem to find the
way using VS 2003 & Package and Deploy Wizard.

In a nutshell, I need to merge a .reg file to create some keys + values.
I need to create an .msi package as our clients do not accept anything else.
I can not really write a program that does it programmatically and then
package it.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Many thanks in advance,

The simplest way is to create a setup project and add your registry
settings to it.
