Load the wizard
specify the project
Click on the next button until the form caption says "Package and deployment wizard - Included Files" on this part click the button saying add, then change the file of type box to "all files (*.*)" then select youre database.
Flick through pressing the next button until The caption of the form says "bla bla bla - Install locations" here you specify the place you want youre database to be place, rember some computers dont have their primary drive as C or dont save in the program files folder so to specify that you want the database to be in a folder with the exe you have to use the $(AppPath) variable. then complete the wizard as you see fit. In future i recomend that you make applications which dont rely on databases for their correct functioning, you should learn how to do VisualBasic IO.
