how to build a sql server instance in the network using sql express?

Hi,

how to build a sql server instance in the network using sql express?

thank you.

Have a look at the install documentation and books only for the setup command line switches, you should be able to get the data there to set up the instance, Then just do the install using the net setup config, you may have to add a setup.ini file to the same directory as the installer. (At least that is how we did it with MSDE).

|||Thank you very much. However, Where can I find those documents you said?|||

The SQL Books online is installed with the sql products and can also be downloaded from the Microsoft Downloads Site. You can also find information on the installer options in the readme files for the express package.

|||I am sorry I still cannot find the information in the SQL Books Online. Could you give a link where the location of the information is? Thank you very much.|||
