Newbie: Article or help topic on deployment with tables

Hi,
VS2005 running with SQL Server Express. My app needs a simple table, if I
include the mdf with the deployment, then the database will be overwritten
with updates (losing the data). So does anyone know of a good
article/tutorial describing how to deploy a simple table via scripts
particularly in regards to what happens when you bring out a new release?

Thanks.

What method are you using to deploy your application? Are you using
ClickOnce Deployment, or a Setup & Deployment package?

Dang. I can't help you there. You might try posting to the MSDN
ClickOnce/Setup & Deployment forum. There's a guy there named Phil Wilson
who seemed to be an expert on S&D packages.

Good luck.
