      Visual studio can make installer files for you. It offers a package and deployment kind of project template.

      Is this a stand-alone application and database is centralized? If yes, requesting users to install a copy of DB is a poor idea. You can keep the DB in your server and provide an interface to access it (web service or WCF). If all your users need separate database instances, they need to install DB on their machines. However, if the data to be stored is small and doesn't require a complex RDBMS system, you can use file system databases like SqlLite[^]. :)

              Hard to tell without knowing much about your systems. One way to do is keeping a centralized database. All updates should go to this DB. So your systems can poll this DB and display the changed data. :)

                Your requirement is similar to a Point of Sales / Retail system. The outlet has to keep an offline database, and synchronize with the server periodically or at end of day. New or updated data from outlet shall be sent to centralized server, and latest data will be downloaded from server and updated in the offline database. The communication can be lease line, dial up, or through internet (you will need a DNS or fix IP for this). The logic of synchronization is the difficult part, especially the master data from the outlet to the server. I would suggest you approach vendors of existing system, instead of creating your own from scratch while without much experience in this field.

                  Are you actually going to build the system or be the business contract to the builder of the system. I fear it is the former - attempting to build this solution with no prior knowledge of applications design is going to be very difficult. I don't want to discourage you, no thats a lie, hire a professional to do the job, work closely with that person in the knowledge that you will be supporting the finished app and learn as much as possible. This will achieve few things, your company may get a good solution, you may get to learn about application sdesign and development, your copany will benifit from having a knowledgable support person in place.
