visual studio 2010 - Deploying a C# application - user form (novice) -

i'm virtually complete novice, i've tried googling answers , become totally confused.

using visual studio 2010, have c# application email notifier friend. external (arduino) hardware works, main code (from website) works i'm sending on other side of world use , 'non-technical' - hence need 'setup form'.

i have created form can enter comm port (selected list), username , password (all used main code), form should run when application first installed on pc.

at moment runs in vs-2010 (though need iron out couple of snags), validates , hides - don't know how a) store data , make available main code, b) ensure form runs @ setup, or c) need or include create installable application.

could either or direct me tutorials don't assume understand terminology?

i want create can instal memory stick. know can done , it's proababy quite simple understand - i'm trying learn i'm no longer young , it's struggle.

thanks

a) store data , make available main code,

write data on file! have millions of possibilities, isntance reading , writing plain text file can done with few lines of code, if want encrypt file (it may case if want store password) can use system.security.cryptography shown in this guide

b) ensure form runs @ setup,

once have written file, means program has run @ least once, don't need ask user again (just read data file)

c) need or include create installable application.

visual studio comes setup project task. see this guide.
