Pack DLL with exe?

Is there a way within visual studio to pack dll's into the exe itself?

I like my software to be contained within one file, because most of it is
really small. I can get away with it when I reuse classes by bringing the cs
files into the project. However when I have to use custom controls I have no
way around it.

Any info would be appreciated!

Thanks
 
There are products that do this but I can't remember the name of them. From memory they were not considered to be very good.
