If you don't have MSMs for the controls of interest, then you'll have to manually include them in the distribution set, along with any dependent files such as DLLs that they may require. I'd suggest looking at www.installsite.com for some ideas.

Why do you have 319 files in your distribution set? If you've compiled to an .EXE file, and that .EXE file is made up from hundreds of different components (PRGs, VCXs, OCXs, etc, you only need to distribute the executable, not all the source code modules. If you have large clusters of files whose content is static, you might consider compressing them into a .ZIP or .CAB externally to reduce processing time.
