Jim,

I guess I'm asking about running scripts. What is a "best practice" for executing that script? Should my application run it? Should someone run it from the command prompt?

Thanks,
Dan

>Not sure if I follow you here. Deploying a SQL Server database either requires SQL Server or MSDE to be installed on the server you want to place the DB on. Installing SQL Server is pretty straightforward and MSDE can be installed using Windows Installer modules.
