.NET 2.0 WIndows Service Deployment

I have a windows service written in C# for .NET 2.0, and I've got everything completed for it, even a Deployment application. Every thing installs and runs fine.

However, now I need to modify the deployment process in order to ask the installer a couple configuration questions. How would I go about doing this

    My bad. I missed the ‘already created a deployment project’. The short answer is to add the necessary dialogs within the deployment project to collect the information that you require from the person doing the installation. What happens with that information is going to depend on precisely what the information is used for by your application/installation process.

    Hope that helps.

    In my original message, I stated that I had built a succesful deployment project...

    My question was, during this deployment how do I ask the installer (aka User) for configuration data before while deploying the service

    While I have built a deployment project for my service, I'm not quite sure how to modify or extend it. I was able to figure out how to add a dialog, but how do I get the values from the dialog and do something with them

    I believe you can accomplish this by using a standard deployment project to create the MSI for your service.
