I'm trying to deploy MSDE with my app, at first I tried using the merge modules but got nowhere, and then I noticed that the readme states "The Setup utilities for new applications should be written to call the MSDE 2000 Setup utility instead of directly consuming the MSDE 2000 merge modules", I tried that and customized my setup so that it would call MSDE setup, however when the install for my app calls the MSDE install it tells me I cant run two installs at the same time. Any ideas??? I was using the Process object in an Installer class to call the MSDE setup.
