Hello,

 I am a WiX virgin picking it up for the first time. I've got an MSI I need to 
pull together for a Sql Server 2008 instance.

That I know of, Sql Server 2008 requires Microsoft .NET 2.0 SP2 (or 3.5 SP1 if 
we go with more advanced features).

Are there any halfway decent extensions to WiX that facilitate inclusion of 
prerequisites? Or is that something we need to roll up ourselves?

 Also that I know of, there is a requirement for Microsoft Installer: only 
trouble is, Windows 7 isn't mentioned in the 4.5 docs anywhere: I am assuming 
that since Windows 7 is basically Vista at its core, that 4.5 will do for 
Windows 7.

 Short of that, what is customary deploying an MSI, to include the latest 
Microsoft Installer, or expect an end-user / admin to be savvy enough to 
install that as well? Of course, that is contingent upon the marketplace 
receiving our product.

 P.S. I've probably asked this before, but, any halfway decent tutorials we can 
study coming up to speed on the learning curve?

 Thanks...
