    Hello, I have a GUI application developed in VS.net. Depending on a users OS, they may require that certain DLL's be in the system folder(s) in order for the GUI to run. Can someone tell me how to develop a simple installation CD, that will load the GUI exe, and then load the required DLL(s) onto the users system. Thanks. :) Jerry
