distributing a single user version of a SS2K5-based app

PJ6
I have an application that uses SQL Server 2005 for the database engine. I'd
like to be able to provide an installer for a single-user version that just
uses a copy of the database running in MSDE or something similar that's free
to redistribute. Is there an easy way to do this? Ideally I'd want the user
to only have to run a single installer package.

Is there a restriction with the academic version of VS.NET 2003 in the way of distributing an EXE? Or, what is the difference in this version and the commercial versions with respect to distribution? Is there some mechanism in place that prevents distribution? Thanks, Brett
