How can I make the DataSocket module include into my setup-Kit? Thank you

Recently I develop a program developped by CVI. The program use the datasocket server module.
 
If the PC running my program have been installed the CVI, my program can use the datasocket function well.
But in the PC without installed CVI , my program can not use the datasocket function .
 
How can I make the DataSocket module include into my setup-Kit? Thank you

If you are using version 8.0 or later, you will find an item in the Drivers & Components list labeled "NI DataSocket".  Check that item to include DataSocket runtime support.

If you are using versions earlier than 8.0, you will find a ring labeled "Install DataSocket Support" on the Create Distribution Kit dialog.  Select 'Always' from the drop down.

I am using the CVI 8.0, but I don't find the "DataSocket"  in the Drivers & Components list of Run time **
THere are three items "run time engine" "3D-graph **" and one another thing
But all of them is none of business with DataSocket.
 
HOw can I deal with this problem ? Thank you

CVI installs DataSocket, so it should appear in that list.  Do you have the directory CVI80\toolslib\datasock, with the .h, .lib, and .fp files?  Can you run the DataSocket samples, or any other program that uses DataSocket? If so, do you have the file Program Files\National Instruments\Shared\MDF\Manifests\NI DataSocket {46ADF464-9D63-47E0-B59F-0D9C3A60B4C4}.xml?  One other thing to check: from the Windows Add/Remove Programs, find National Instruments Software, then click the Change/Remove button.  From the list that comes up, find NI LabWindows/CV 8.0.x FDS Package, then click the Modify button.  This should give you a list of all the installed features.  Press Ctrl+Shift+A to show all the components installed.  Near the top, make sure you see that Datasocket and MDF Support have green check marks.

Let me know what you find.

In my PC there are three versions of CVI  such as  CVI7.0   7.1 and  8.0
The sequence of CVI installing is as that too,
 
I have the directory CVI80\toolslib\datasock, with the .h, .lib, and .fp files
I can run the DataSocket samples, or any other program that uses DataSocket
 
I am not sure whether  the file Program Files\National Instruments\Shared\MDF\Manifests\NI DataSocket {46ADF464-9D63-47E0-B59F-0D9C3A60B4C4}.xml   is in my PC. Because my  PC can not surf the internet.  I have to check it after returning my office.
 
I will check it soon .
 
Thank you

Now I have found the reason for this problem.
Before  I installed the CVI8.0 after installing the CVI7.0. So the datasocket module does not disappear the structure of CVI8.0. So  I can not find the datasocket in the KIT managerment.
 
To deal with the problem I format my disk C , install the XP OS.  Then first I install the CVI8.0 first  then I installed the CVI7.0
Now I can find the datasocket in the KIT management.
