packaging MSDE 2000 with PDW

How can i package MSDE 2000 (not MSDE 7) with my application using package and deployment wizard?
Burlar:
I have been on this list for a year and installing MSDE with an application
has been the number one problem since then.
As far as I know, it cannot be done reliably.

|||Paul,
Then how have you been able to solve the problem. I don't want to have to install msde on every target machine. I feel it is bad practice.

I haven't. I am rolling out my app. in a month and seriously considering
telling
users that they must be on Win 2K or above as this will solve a lot of
problems
apparently ...

|||Hi Burlar,
In addtion to Paul's advice, check out my comments to anaximan (in this
folder) regarding the PDW. It should now not be being used.
