VS.NET 2003 help - Setup Projects

Hello,

I am working on deploying a WinForm solution that I inherited -- v1.1,
VS 2003. I've made my changes to the forms and classes, and the
solution already has Setup projects for my working projects.

However, when I build the Setup projects, the MSIs they are producing
are way too small -- 80k instead of the expected 2-8mb of the prior-
version's MSIs.

I didn't setup the original solution, so I'm not sure how it produced
larger files. But, I am guessing it's due to the 3rd-party assemblies,
which tally in total ~8mb. It's my guess that these refs are not being
copied into the MSIs.

....Can anyone help?!


Thanks!
sm

did some more poking around... it looks like for each Setup Project, i
have to include the desired project's output, via: " Add --> Project
Output... --> Primary Output".

..any tips or gotchas that i should be aware of?


thanks,
