If you're absolutely determined to write your own .exe that's compatible with the Microsoft installer stuff, then you pretty much need to read this chapter cover-to-cover:

Actually, you can do that in Visual Studio by going New Project -> Other Project Type -> Setup and Deployment Visual Studio Installer.

In the File menu, click New->Project, and then in the dialog select Other Project Types->Setup and Deployment in the tree on the left. Select InstallShield LE or Visual Studio Installer, as you prefer.

Personally I'd recommend Visual Studio Installer->Setup Wizard for beginners.
