Hi -
I was just wondering. When you create a Setup project in .NEt (Visual Studio Deployment Project) - is there a configuration you can set that would cause the Setup program to automatically reinstall the application if the application was already installed on a system. Right now, when I run my Setup msi on a system that already has the application - it just says 'The Application is already installed on the system.' I then have to manually uninstall the application from Add/Remove Programs and then run setup. I've seen setup programs that automatically do the install over the existing application.
