Hi Jeff,

I believe this is more of an application setup issue than SQL Server setup
issue, as you need to programmatically check. I am currently working with
setup engineer on this issue and need more time in research.

| Hi -
|
| I'm creating an installation program that will install a VB.NET program
and
| an instance of MSDE on an unknown desktop (commercial application). The
| install will include the MSDE redistributable files (and it will launch
the
| MSDE Setup.exe to install MSDE).
|
| I've read that "Except on Win 98 and Millennium, file and print sharing
must
| be active"
|
| How can my install program ensure this (programmatically)? More
| specifically:
|
| Where (registry setting or elsewhere) do I check for these settings, and
| what name-value pairs are valid?
|
| Is this the correct approach?
|
| Thanks for your help.
|
| - Jeff
