Uninstall MSDE 2000 as part of in Uninstall process

[baumsh]

Hi,

I would like to ask, I installed the MSDE 2000 using the Install \\ Remove MSI Package and the files are included as a File Bag plug-in, now when I uninstall my app the it dosn't uninstall the MSDE as well, how would I go about it? do I have to call again the Install \\ Remove MSI Package? and what should be the location of the MSDE files? do I have to run the file bag plug-in again at uninstall? and what should the parameters (on the first tab of the plugin form) contain?

Your help is greatly appreceated.

Best Regards,
Shloma Baum

You simply call the Install / Remove MSI package and you specify the GUID of the MSI to be removed.

The fact is that i don't remember what the GUID for the MSDE 2000 is..
I used it on my installations a couple of months ago, before the SQL Express 2005 edition.

(Un)Install MSI Setup is a built-in InstallAware command.
As for finding out the GUID of MSDE, using Orca should work
