I have deployed an application using Visual Studio but have manually deployed SQL Server Express as part of my application installation.
I am keep to use the prerequisites facility to install SQL Server 2012 Express but need to know how this will operate. For users with SQL Server Express 2005/2008 already installed, will they be prompted to do an update and if so, will the database be updated as well ? Will this be a seamless operation ?
Most of my application users are not very computer literate so I am keen to keep the process simple, smooth and 'automatic'.
Thank you in advance.
