I think people missed his point. His wording may not of been clear, but I dont think he was insulting mysql, but simply asking how to intall mysql using a simple distribution tool as can be done using MSDE

if you want MSDE, then use it, MySql is excellent, and cheap, and has a lot less bugs!!!!

First, what's the point of having a database if your app use it locally?! (except of course, for testing) Use file storage instead :P Second, I could not see the point on your comment about a proprietary, expensive and unportable DBE on this list, I find it rude and totally off topic. Third, I've seen NSIS Installs that install, configure and run MySQL for testing purposes on a distributed app I developed last year. MySQL Team made a wizard for Windows install, so, its possible.

MSDE, I can distribute it with 3rd party toold

like Installshield (to

distribute means: to auto install without user

interference, auto

execute SQL DDL ).

How can MySQL do that? ( MySQL Desktop Engine

maybe :p )
