Could you give a little more information? Would these new scripts need
to be included in a separate component other than my SQL Database
component? In my installer I am creating a new database and running a
script CreateTable.sql on the install. This works. For the patch I
changed the CreateTable.sql to AlterTable.sql in my Setup.wxs. I want to
include new sql scripts in the updated .msi and create a patch that will
execute the changed sql. Does it need to have a different Binary Key?
When executing the patch.msp I get an option to Change/Repair/Remove.
I've tried both Change and repair, but it seems Change is the option I
want to use since it asks for the SQL credentials. The assemblies are
getting updated but the script is not being run. I'm a little unsure how
this is all suppose to work. 

                        <Binary Id="CreateTable"
SourceFile="..\..\SQLScript\MigrateScripts\CreateTable.sql" />

                        <Component Id="SuiteDatabaseComponent"
Guid="d6e96011-3252-4e85-80b5-b1ff64045e88">
                                <CreateFolder/>

                                <!-- installs database -->
                                <sql:SqlDatabase Id="db1"
                                  Server="[SQLSERVER]"

                                  CreateOnInstall="yes"
ConfirmOverwrite="yes"
                                  DropOnUninstall="no" User="SQLUser">

                                        <!-- define where the database
files are saved -->
                                        <sql:SqlFileSpec Id="mdf"
                                                Name="SuiteWix_Data"
        
Filename="[DATABASEDIR]SuiteWiX_Data.mdf"
                                                Size="2MB"
GrowthSize="2MB"/>
                                        <sql:SqlLogFileSpec Id="ldf"
                                                Name="SuiteWix_Log"
        
Filename="[DATABASEDIR]SuiteWiX_Log.ldf"/>

                                        <!-- add reference to database
script bianarieshere -->
                                        <sql:SqlScript Id="CreateTable"
BinaryKey="CreateTable" ExecuteOnInstall="yes"/>
                                </sql:SqlDatabase>
                        </Component>

The SqlScript element (or SqlString if you just want to run a couple
strings).

My initial installer creates the SQL database perfectly, but I want to
be able to include new SQL scripts to be run with my patches. Could
someone give me some insight on how to do this?
