MS SQL Server pre-selection in the prerequisites dialog

Hello.

I have predefined prerequisite SQL Server 2008 R2 Express SP2. Is it possible do not make pre-selection for "SQL Server 2008 R2 Express SP2" in the prerequisites dialog if other version of the MS SQL Server is already installed?

Re: MS SQL Server pre-selection in the prerequisites dialog

Hello,

Please note that there is a Windows limitation when installing SQL Server since 2008 R2 SP1 as a feature-based prerequisite within your installation project.

So, the recommended way is to add it as a Pre-Install prerequisite. Also if the install conditions are not fulfilled, then the related dialogs will not be showed.

Please let us know if that helped.

Best regards,
