Automating MSDE Setup

sql server msde:

On microsoft support web site
"http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;234626" I saw the
article 234626 "SAMPLE: Setup1.exe Fully Automating MSDE Setup with the
Package and Deployment Wizard (PDW)" about automation of MSDE setup from PDW
of Visual Basic but only setup1.exe is downloadble. I can't use it because my
setup1.vbp is already customized for my application. I can't find a location
to download a source code of setup1.exe for merge it with my custom
setup1.vbp.
Please help me!
Thanks in advance.

have a look at
http://msdn.microsoft.com/vstudio/downloads/addins/MSDE/instdwnld.aspx
it provides the full VB6 code for installing MSDE 1.0 ... you have to
customize it a little to support MSDE 2000 in order to manage all MSDE 2000
setup.exe boostrapper installer parameters...
