Click once property in setup project

Click once can be set up to pole the setup url if there is a newer
version or not. I have a project which can only be deployed using a
setup project. How can I create the same feature in my setup project,
so the client will automatically check if there is a newer version or not?

The question would be: check where?

With ClickOnce it makes sense - the user browses to a URL to begin with.

But if you just have a setup project, how would that know where to check?

I think you would have to roll your own solution for this. There is an
Application Updater Block from MS, that might be helpful with this.
