How would you do this without InstallAware?

Do you have commands you can run at the command prompt?

[Diklally]

I did it with a batch file that run a sql script,
can i hide the console window?

I also need to know- if i set the sql 2005 at the application runtime: if the user computer is without sql server: does it install it automaticlly?
if so - what is this script and how can i set the installation parameters at advance?

Thanks,
Diklally

If you include SQL Server runtimes, you can edit the options in the runtimes view to specify an instance to install.
