I am packaging up a program using the setup project. I'm trying to get the program to exectue an .exe file that will create 2 batch files specific to the directory the program was installed to. I tried to use Custom Actions window to have it execute the program on install and on commit.
Does anyone know what I need to do?

Here is my issue as I can see now. When I bring in a compiled .exe file from another .Net program the installer views it as an assembly. So I try to bring it in as Primary Project Output and have the Custom Action attempt to run that primary output, but with no luck.
If I choose any other .exe file that I did not create, it will execute that program.
Maybe that will clear up my dillema and someone can offer some assistance.
Thanks,
DG
