.spc .pvk - now what???

Hello, I need to sign my application. And I've already have a .pvk and a .spc. I've already managed to sign my assembly using signtool.exe but I want to configure automatic signing using Visual Studio.

What do I need to do with those files I have in order to set the Strong Name and certificate.

    1. Convert the pvk into a pfx file using pvk2pfx tool. This should be in your Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 8\Common7\Tools\Bin directory.

    2. In VS 2005, go to Project->Properties->Signing tab.
        Check Sign the assembly or both depending.
        Click on the Choose the Strong Name Key combo and select browse.
        In the File Dialog choose the pfx file created in step 1.

    Thanks,
    Sameer
