Re: Package and deploy in .NET

I don't have perfect info as has not did an install package in a while. But
one of the dependency loaders/install loaders will put up nice dialogs for
the user to download (FX, sql express, etc) required dependencies and not
proceed until those are loaded - so you can include on CD or it will
download. There was a C9 vid on it, but don't know how to do it with VS
installer.
