How do we prevent the bootstrapper to install prerequisites?

Currently We are installing 开发者_StackOverflowprequisties softwares using the bootstrapper. So i want to install the prerequisties without using the Bootstrapper ?. Whether it is possible ?

Not sure if your using a Visual Studio project but you could create a custom action to install prerequisits. Here is a link that was useful to me in the past http://weblogs.asp.net/scottgu/archive/2005/11/06/429723.aspx
