Subject | Best suggestion for installation scripting? |

We are going to be releasing an Installer (probably with Installshield) for
a Windows Firebird Super Server installation and a database. But the
database configuration will change over time so rather than including a FDB
file, I would prefer to include either a SQL script file or something like
this that would enable us to have the database built at the time of the
installation.
What is the best way of doing this? I am not including any client software
with the installer that will do this, but would like to include a script
file of some sort to automatically build the database once the server is
installed.
Any suggestions?
Thanks
