SQLServer Express Edition Auto Install

Hi,
I have written a program which uses SQL Server Express Edition (2005)
for the database. I have created an install program using VS.NET 2008
for it. But I have a problem:
I want to install and configure SQL Sevre automatically (through code
or install program) so that any user can install my program without
any problems.
Can anyone please help?
Thanks in advance.

Hi ! when installing sqlserver 2000 on a Windows 2003 server it explicitly tells "server not compatible with Windows 2003" during install, but it can carry on. After we applied serfice pack 3a then the db server seems to run normally, but does it risk to behave randomly afterwards ??? Is sqlserver 2000 standard edition compatible with Windows 2003 server ? Or does it exist a specific sqlserver edition for Win2003 ?

My main dev machine has WinXp and VS2005 (pro). 1. I need to install VWD Express Edition so that I can do some instruction on this. Any issues with both on the same machine. Installation order? 2. Does VWD Express Edition support the idea of Solutions? I coun't figure out how to create a blank solution which I usually do with VS2005 (and then add my web site to the solution.)

I've been playing around with VB since version 3. I now have VB6 Learning Edition. I'm thinking about getting VB.NET Express Edition. I have a lot of demo programs for version 3 thru version 6. I realize that the convertor might not be able to convert the source code on the older demos. I would have to open every demo program in version 6 & save it in the VB6 format & then open the source code in VB.NEt & convert to VB.NET. I've read...

I was told that SqlServer express should get installed when VS2008Pro is installed (that is it is on the same DVD). I had a couple of errors during vs2008's installation and I don't see any signs of sqlserver. Is SqlServer Express suppose to get installed when VS2008 Pro is installed? Or should I download SqlServer and installed it that way?

I installed SQL Server 2008 Express, basic edition (SQLEXPR32_x86_ENU_Bootstrapper.exe, version 9.0.30729.1) without any problem. Then I attempted to install AdventureWorks Sample Databases for SQL Server 2008 (SQL2008.AdventureWorks_All_Databases.x86.msi). This attempt failed because SQL Server 2008 Express, basic edition doesn’t support Full-text Search, which AdventureWorks requires. So I uninstalled SQL Server 2008 Express, basic...

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>". The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed. This is as boiled down as I can make it.

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
