I Created the setup for my vb.Net appliaction and installed it on the client systems. The application uses MS Access as the database. So i manually added the file to Setup project under its application directory.
Now I have an update for that appliaction. So how can i create an update setup for the application. And I need to keep the Database file as it is ( Dont Delete or Dont install new copy).
Please help me.

To update an older version you can use a major upgrade:
This way the new version will automatically uninstall the old one during install.
