For quesion number 1

If u refer to a Dialog as a form then

CMyDialog dlg;
dlg.DoModal();

If its a view.. thenbr]
For question number 2br]
use the ShellExecute function....

This is the prototypebr]
HINSTANCE ShellExecute(
HWND hwnd,
LPCTSTR lpOperation,
LPCTSTR lpFile,
LPCTSTR lpParameters,
LPCTSTR lpDirectory,
INT nShowCmd
);

Here is goe to use itbr]HINSTANCE hInt;
hInt=ShellExecute(m_hWnd,"open",strProgram,NULL,strDirectory,SW_SHOW)

For question number 3br]
It depends in what features u r using....

I mostly have used the InstallShield Express that ships with Visual C++.

U need to include all components that your application uses, like OCX, etc.
