Nevertheless I'll try to answer your question.

Quote:
create a project using Other Project Types template.

expand Setup and Deployment and choose your installer project. Recommendation (from what you want): Visual Studio Installer - Setup Wizard

but you can chose others as well.

with the Setup and Deployment, you can include those files (images, XML, etc.) in the package

Follow the link for different templates, Windows Installer section. Deployment[^]

You have to install sql server on that computer on which you want to install you software and make new data base and all table which you create on you application then set that data base path in you app.config file this way you can use that data base.
