How do I create a MSI-installer based on a set of files (Visual Studio 2008) -


I have a huge Visual Studio 2008 solution that has many NAT-projects. When I build a resile, I get a bunch of files (DDL, images, etc.) and folders in the output folder. What I want to do now is to take those files and prepare an MSI-installer package.

Then, when I run MSI, I want to copy the files and folders to that folder that the user specifies in the installer wizard.

What should I do to accomplish this? Can I run some scripts on post-build generating MSI?

Take a look at this, very popular open source installer:
