Bundle SQLEXPRESS with application
-
Hi Guys, I've just finished an application that uses MSSQL EXPRESS as its local temp DB. I just wanna ask, for convenience sake, is there a way i can put SQLEXPRESS into the installation such that it installs "silently", with the other app. I mean, without the user having to run the .exe by himself.

You can make your setup program download and install it as a requirement. It would download it from the MS site. No need to actually bundle it.
