newbie question on Including Files

G

Guest

I have two text files containing file names which my project will load into
an array so it can do operations on these files.
Where do I place these files so that they will be included in the compiled
distribution file?
I want them installed in the same directory the user selects to install the
program.
I also want to include a Readme file and a couple of .jpg pictures not
directly referenced by my program, just for the user to look at.

My solution explorer window shows two projects, the program I am developing,
and a project containing stuff for the compile(detected dependencies and
primary output)

The file detected dependencies show an item called dotnetfx redist..etc. but
every time I rebuild the project I get a message:
WARNING: This setup does not contain the .NET Framework which must be
installed on the target machine by running dotnetfx.exe before this setup
will install. You can find dotnetfx.exe on the Visual Studio .NET 'Windows
Components Update' media. Dotnetfx.exe can be redistributed with your setup.

I assume you have VS.NET. Play with the New Project -> Setup and Deployment
Projects
