HI All,<br />

I want install the MSDE 2000, when I click the exe, I received the below message:-<br />
<br />
&quot;A strong SA password is required for security reasons.<br />
Please us SAPWD switch to supply the same. Refer to redme<br />
for more details. Setup will now exit.&quot;<br />
<br />
I did type in a command in Windows Command:-<br />
<br />
C:\ ...\&gt; Setup.exe SAPWD = my_password<br />
<br />
When I Enter, I see the below message box:-<br />
==========================<wbr />==========<wbr />=<br />
Windows Installer V3.01.4000 1830<br />
<br />
msiexec /Option &lt;Required Parameter&gt; [Option Parameter]<br />
<br />
.... &nbsp;<br />
<br />

<br />
What does it mean? <br />
