Setup Program for .NET Apps.

I was wondering if there was a better way to create a
single setup project for a winform .NET App'.

It's the .NET redistributable (dotnetfx.exe) that seems
to be causing the problem. How can this be distibuted
with out a sepertate setup program. I would have thought
a merge module or something. But it seems I need to get
my clients to install the dotnetfx.exe first then my app
after.

Any ideas.
