Help with creating installer in VS.NET 2k3 TFo03

visual studio .net setup: Hi there,
This is my first post on here so please bear with me.

I'm working on creating an installer for a small database application.
What I would like to do is have my installer ask the user whether or
not the database will be running on the local machine, or remotely. If
the database will be local, I'd like the setup program to launch an
installer for the database software.

Is this possible to do? I can't find a guide online that shows how to
use any logic in a setup program, or how to launch the other setup.

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks!
