Hi guys,

I have created windows service project in vs2008.

Unlike other application i cannot run service exe file, so I had to first installed service using ServiceInstaller in my service project.
Now i am building setup project for my service (MSI). In that setup project I am trying to add the output from my service project to my setup project by follwing below step

1. Right Click **Setup roject** in solution explorer and then click add and then click project output. 2.Now it open up *project output group dialog box* but now problem is this dialog box is empty and not allowing me to select service project. Now i dont know how to add the service projet to my setup project any help would be appriciated. Thank you guys.
