    I want to give our developers the ability to install Query Analyzer without providing access to the SQL Server 2000 installation CD.  Is this possible?

    Thanks,   Dave

    When choosing the installation type you can choose advanced and the select the option to create a recorded Unattended Intsall File .iss.  I have not actualy tried this before but this may solve your problem.

    Unattended.iss  may actually contain a section [CDKEYDialog-0] for CD Key.   iss files are text files, so users will have a CD key as well.

    I would create a package using any packaging program
