    Hi, I had created setup files for the project which i worked on. So the user has to install the setup and run the application. The next time i give him the new setup of the same project, then he'll have to uninstall it from 'Control Pane->Add/Remove Programs'. Is there a way by which he need not uninstall again and again i give him new setups, but just update it?? please can anyone just help me out here??

      If you're using .Net 2.0, using ClickOnce makes updating applications easier. http://msdn.microsoft.com/msdnmag/issues/04/05/ClickOnce/[^]

        Hi! There's a setting somewhere in the setup project to "check for newer version". You'll also have to increment the version of your project or windows installer will tell you that this particular version is installed already. Regards, mav
