That makes sense to me, but I thought that this bug should allow the
[EMAIL PROTECTED] attribute to be formatted text (allowing a property instead
of a id reference).  If it is fixed, than using a property in that attribute
should be ok and would eliminate the need for two sqldatabase components
depending on whether the user wants to use windows auth or not.

I just downloaded the latest build (2.0.4908.0) and using the following
code, I received a light error LGHT0112, Unresolved reference to symbol
'User:[SQLUSERID]'.  Am I using this correctly?

Thanks,

Summary: SqlDatabase/@User - Change to formatted element

Initial Comment:
Currently, the database custom actions have the option
to connect using Integrated Authentication or SQL
Server Authentication.  The way the choice is made is
determined is based on the presence of a SQLUser tag
within the SQLDatabase tag.

The downside to using the current SQLUser tag
methodology as the determining factor is we have to
create two components for each database create tag and
condition those based on the WINDOWS_AUTH property.
This is fine when you are only referencing a few
SQLScripts or SQLStrings.  For complicated databases;
however, there can many scripts that need to be
executed and it makes it the installation more prone to
error and much more complicated by requiring these tags
be duplicated.

From Rob in an e-mail on the Wix-Dev list:
What if we make the SqlDatabase/@User a formatted
element?  Then a Property could be used to select the
appropriate SqlUser or empty property to mean Windows
Auth.  The code doesn't have to change much at all and
everything behaves pretty much as it does right now.
