1. Server
2. Workstation
3. DB Server

Following are the sequence I would like to set but it doesn't work that way.
1. Windows Installer 4.5
2. .NET 35 SP1
3. Crystal Reports 10 Runtime
4. SQL Server 2008 Express
Here's the code for that
Project DefaultTargets=Build

Try changing the first line to:

Something like this

You shouldn't be doing this from an MSI, but from a bootstrapper. MSIs are not
