Hello, i need to package and deploy sql server express r2 with visual studio installer 2010, and execute a database create script at the end of the installation. I am deploying a client and server version of my application, i will present a dialog "choose which app to install, client or server".if the use choose server, then install sql server, if client then skip sql server installation. the first issue is, i have been able to create a bootstrap for sql server r2 and create the installer dll that will execute the database create file, but i get an error shown in the image. the second issue is that how do i let the user choose weather to install sql server or not in the deployment process. thanks
