Publish OR install project
-
I am creating a VB.NET windows application and am unsure at whether i should be publishing the final executeable or creating a install/deployment project. I have tried the publish route (both to a web url and a directory) and the program installs fine. However i want to control where the exe file is sent and the publish does'nt seem to give me that. Is this what the install/deployment route will give me? Or is there a valid reason for using one over the other? (Yes, i am a .NET newbie) Regards
