Do you mean can you create a bootstrapper package for SQLServer Express 2008 R2? If that’s what you’re asking, then yes, it should. If you mean can you create a bootstrapper package for Visual Studio 2008, not so much. ;-)

If the windows username and name of the Pc is the same, the installation of SQL Express 2008 R2 will fail!

Was having this problem at a customer, it was not easy to figure out :-(
Once the machine name was changed, it worked like a charm!

If you are just doing a scripted SQLServer installation, you wouldn’t use a bootstrapper package.

I would try installing it separately and see if it will even install. If not, then there’s an MSDN forum for SQL Express here. They are more capable of helping you with this issue than I am!

I did receive an error on my click once setup.exe package that maybe someone has some insight on? The sql express install started but then stopped due to error (Windows xp sp3):
….. File trusted
Installing using command ‘C:\DOCUME~1\ADMINI~1.LAS\LOCALS~1\Temp\VSDC.tmp\SqlExpress2008R2\SQLEXPR32_x86_ENU.EXE’ and parameters ‘/q /hideconsole /action=Install /features=SQL /instancename=SQLEXPRESS /enableranu=1 /sqlsvcaccount=”NT Authority\Network Service” /AddCurrentUserAsSqlAdmin /skiprules=RebootRequiredCheck /IAcceptSQLServerLicenseTerms’
Process exited with code -2067529712
Status of package ‘SQL Server 2008 R2 Express’ after install is ‘InstallFailed’

http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd981032(v=sql.100).aspx
where the installation is an embedded piece of a larger app. (and through config files, controllable/customizable). Is the difference that you used Click Once to make a stand-alone or combinable deployment tool, rather than embedding SQL in the applications Installer? What is the advantage/trade off of using your technique? Thanks for your time.
