Without using any setup and deployment, how can we create the setup file using fresh code. Please help me to find out the solution. Thanks in Advance, KV
Write code to copy your files to the appropraite places required, create and the registry keys and values you need, and modify any other configuration files. Shouldn't be too hard, just time consuming.

An ASP.NET app is a bit more complicated, and no I don't have any sample setup projects. I just don't go through the MAJOR hassle of reinventing the setup project that comes with Visual Studio.

I don't have any code that shows how to do it. And seriously, if you can't copy a file in code, you really don't have the skills to make an entire setup for you app. The only thing I use are MSI installer editors, like InnoSetup, Wise Package Studio, or InstallShield. I just don't believe in reinventing the wheel.

2006, 2007, 2008Thanks for your Reply Dave me too. The only thing that i need to achieve is Accept the user input from the Setup Process and change the Webconfig(ConnectionString), i dont want to move directories around, but i think i should be easy to do that. My problem in the link i gave you, is that i cant open the WEbConfig to write on it. well the code works on the page , but not on the installer Class Project.
