Bootstrapping .NET 2.0

Thank you in advance for all your assistance. It is greatly appreciated,
especially the Microsoft Certified Personnel that monitor these newgroups and
answer questions and people like Seth and Ghost. I really appreciate all the
help you people give.

I have a problem, and I know you all can help me with it. My VS 205
application requires .NET 2.0 framework to be installed to run. I would like
to bootstrap .NET Framework 2.0 to my installation setup, but I have no idea
where to look or how to do it. Any code samples or information would be
greatly appreciated.

If you are using Visual Studio 2005, you can click Project from the menus
along the top and then Properties. In here you can specify to include .NET
Framework into the Setup.exe.

Hi Michael,

You can access the Bootstrapper through the Project/Properties page. Select
Publish from the left tab, and click Prerequisites button on the right.

Here is an article about how to use the Visual Studio 2005 Bootstrapper to
kick-start your installation. I think it will be helpful.

If anything is unclear, please feel free to let me know.
