Subject: Re: [WiX-users] Anyone have a sample WixProject that includes 
installing and configuration SQL Express 2008 or 2008 R2?

We package SQL Express as a prerequisite using .NET bootstrapper.

You can find the package if you have the SDK installed somewhere like this 
C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v7.0A\Bootstrapper\Packages

We needed to make some modifications to the default package details to provide 
a SQL instance name and such. They are just hard-coded as command-line 
parameters passed to the SQL installer. I don't know if that works for you. The 
 http://archive.msdn.microsoft.com/bmg Bootstrapper Manifest Generator  is very 
helpful for generating parts of the package manifest.
