select DB instance during install in setup project

I have an application that includes a database which I'll create on the
user pc if not already there, but how do I find a SQL Express instance
on the user pc (maybe with a selct DB instance dialog)?

And how to reflect this in my connection string in the later custom
action that creates the database...?
