Problem with Outlook 2003 (VSTO 2005) Setup project.

[Paulo Braz Figueiredo]

Hy,
I developed an Outlook 2003 add-in. Now I need an installer to deploy de
add-in. I’m using a Setup project but I’m having some problems with the
prerequisites.

I’m trying to create a setup program to install the prerequisites components:
- Visual Studio 2005 Tools for Office Runtime
- Visual Studio 2005 Tools for Office Language Pack
- Office Primary Interop Assemblies
I read about it in:
http://geekswithblogs.net/gaurav/archive/2006/05/30/80082.aspx

When I try to add the Prerequisites to the Setup Project the necessary
prerequisites doesn’t appear in the list to be selected.

-- Tutorial Exert --
To add the prerequisites:
1. In Solution Explorer, right-click the “OutlookAddinSetup†node, and then
click “Propertiesâ€.
2. In the “Property Pages†dialog box, click the â€Prerequisites button.
3. In the list of prerequisites, select Microsoft Office 2003 Primary
Interop Assemblies and Microsoft Visual Studio 2005 Tools For Office Runtime.

Anybody knows why the prerequisite doesn’t appear in the list? How can I add
the prerequisite to the list?
