0	You cant add SQL Management studio inside your Setup. It will be probably big.For changing of a Connection string you need to use Custom Action to do your setup. I have done such thing a long time ago. Thank you for posting at Dotnetfunda [Administrator] Vijaygundra, if this helps please login to Mark As Answer. \| Alert Moderator
