how can i let my program delete itself if the user asks for it?

hi all,

i'm trying to figure out a way to write an application which can delete itself.
i already programmed the deletion of the registry entries, removing all other files as well, but the program itself is something i can not figure out how to remove it.

are there API's which i can use for it, should i use the windows installer like an uninstall program?
if so then how can i use it?

or are there other ways?

Thanks in advance for your replies
