I'm told that we use it for a couple of our standalone tools we provide
admins for our products.  I haven't worked with it myself, but the
programmer who has used it agrees with you that it's easy once it's set
up.

Hi all

How many of you are using this feature of Visual Studio?

I'm about finishing a major Windows app and decided to try the ClickOnce
route. I've seen the demos and was a bit sceptical - but for no reason. 

This is sooo clever! Initial install at the workstations is a snap any
user can handle and, really, deployment of a new version is not much
more than a click to send the revised version to an FTP server or
network drive and the user will automatically be offered to download and
install the new version at a click of a button. 
Even a simple web page which you can e-mail a link to to potential users
is created by the wizard.
