Hi,
I have made a program in C#, but most of my clients doesn't have .NET
installed on their computer. I would like to make it easy for them to
install my program so I want to create an installation that will
automatically check if .NET is installed, and if not, it will
install .NET (also automatically), and only then install my program.
How can I do it?
Please help,
Ofir.

That's what Setup&Deployment Projects do, as well as most 3rd party tools
that build MSI files and supply a bootstrap to install prerequisites then
launch the MSI file install. ClickOnce might be an option too.

Bootstrapping is useful, as you only install when needed.
