Installing SQL server 2005 and creating database during setup wizard in c#

Question

I have a c# application that which contains a database in SQL server 2005. I wish to first install sql server 2005, create the database, tables in that database during run time i.e. during installation of my c# application. The setup wizard should install all this and then install my c# application.

I went through msdn walkthroughs but the solution is in visual basic.

Please help.

@Greg My c# application is for some sales application. whenever i create a setup of my application on any machine sql server 2005 should get installed first. My databases, tables should be installed second and then my c# application should be installed. How can this be done ? — Sudeep Purohit

After installation of your application, first check your DB on Login form / Start up form. If your DB not exists in DBMS, restore the back of your DB at run time.
