I don't know if this is a limitation of the Express version of VB.NET 2008, but VB6 was capable of creating an installator, and adding extra needed files to it.

I have the Build>Publish option on VB.net 2008 express, but it don't ask for extra files to add to the installator.

¿Is there a way to add to the installer a .txt file that my program reads at startup?
