Can I install a software after the image is built, or I cannot do that. Only
make the software to the components and input to the Database and add in TD
???
If need to make component, what is the procedure ??? Is that show as the
following:

1.) install the software
2.) make the .exe be a component and make denpendency to all required file
(...dll..)
3) add the registry

Or I ca nonly change the setup.exe to the componentis alright ???

You can, but this depends on your image.

You should create component, that will copy extracted files (no setup.exe)
to their folders.
Also this component should populate registry (or optionally install some
dll/ocx components).

And when XPe is done with FBA you should have your program able to start.
This is more elegant solution than making support for setup.exe and in some
cases even forcing you to follow install wizard.

If you just want to install on the run-time image, your setup program might
require the Windows Installer Service comoponent to be present in the image.
