Deployment issue

I built a windows app in VB.NET (VS2005) and am having issues in deployment. I have to warn you -- this is one of my first deployments.

I get an error:
Code:
The folder path '.' contains an invalid character."

So - I thought maybe something was wrong with my app -- so I followed the VS walkthrough on deploying a simple form that opened up notepad. It worked fine in debug -- but got the exact same error message when I tried to deploy -- both to the development machine and the target machine.

Anyone know what I am missing?

Thanks.

I got it.

The default Manufacturer in the installer was set to '.' -- so when the installer wanted to install to c:\program files\.\ -- that was an issue...

Easy enough.
