In short, I'm not sure, but I would hazard a guess that you can do
pretty much whatever you want with the scripting.
Sorry I can't be more specific.

I have the same question but with Microsoft SQL Server (ie MSDE equivalent).
Good experiences? Bad? Is it hard to customise so that for example the
installer checks whether an default instance of SQL Server is already
installed (can be done by checking registry) and offers the user a

I recommend using the forums if you are stuck. You usually get a quick response.
What version are you using?

Another alternative is to fully script it yourself using Inno Setup
(which is written in Delphi). The scripting language it provides is
very similar to Delphi, and you should be able to find references in the
Inno Setup forums to other posters using Inno Setup to deploy database
stuff, although I

John,
Can you not script that yourself in your own CurStepChanged function?
