You can manually modify the INSTALL.INI created by the VdB deploy utility.
Add an additional 'PMItem' for each .EXE that you wish to be included in
the program group:

  [PMItem IconTitle1
  PMGroup TestApp
  CmdLine &INSTAPP\APP1.EXE
  DefDir &INSTAPP
  ShowMin OFF
  Group INSTAPP
  ]
  [PMItem IconTitle2
  PMGroup TestApp
  CmdLine &INSTAPP\APP2.EXE
  DefDir &INSTAPP
  ShowMin OFF
  Group INSTAPP
  ]

You might be able to tweak INSTALL.INI for this as well. I haven't tried
it.
