I have to say this seems like an odd requirement, I have an application that 
needs SQL Express and I have structure the BA to detect SQL and if it is not 
present install it in the normal burn chain sequence. Is there a reason why you 
can't do this?

Subject: [WiX-users] Burn Prerequisites

Hi All,

Is there a way to define prerequisites that need to be installed before the BA 
loads?  For example, I want burn to install SQL express before loading the 
bootstrapper application.  The reason for this is my BA checks SQL connectivity 
before beginning the install process.  I need to make sure the installer can 
connect to SQL before installing, and I also (may) need to install SQL.  If 
anyone can think of a more elegant way of doing this I am open to suggestions.

Thanks,
Nick
