Recently made a new ASP.net query project, need to do a setup program, just found that Microsoft Visual Studio.NET 2003 can be fully competent, then how can I roamed it! Oh, less gossip, to see how I make it!

First, run Microsoft Visual Studio. NET 2003, point "file" → "new" → "project", and the "Project Settings dialog" appears, as shown in figure (1).
Select Install and deploy project and select Web Setup project in template on the right. Fill in the name of the project in the Name fill box below. The Location selection box select the installer to generate in that directory, you can also click "Browse" to select other directories, the above selection is completed, click "OK" button, the first step is completed.
Right-click on the Web Application folder and choose add → file in the right-click menu, as shown (2)



A File Selection dialog box appears, you can select multiple files, and then click Open to display the selected files in the Web application folders directory. In the same way, on the left "Web Application Folder" "BIN" Directory point "add" → "file" appears in the File Selection dialog box, you can also select multiple files, select the files in the BIN directory in our ASP.net project, and the click Open file appears in the Project Settings directory.

Particular attention is the two options in the Properties menu in the lower-right corner of the Web Application folder: (Figure 3)

When you are finished setting up. The build solution under the Build menu allows you to build a solution under the working directory that you originally defined. Finally open the definition of the Project working directory, open the "debug" directory, run Setup.exe, oh, see, the Web Installer generated!
