Installing the KB815495 hotfix over sp3a

I need to automatically install the hotfix following the installation of
MSDE sp3a. I use InstallShield to handle the installation which also
installs our app. It appears that the hotfix installation requires user
intervention to select the instance to apply the hotfix to. Is there a way
to bypass the UI and perform a silent installation for a specified instance?
Regards
Russell
Have you looked at the KB article for that hotfix yet,
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=KB;[LN];821277? I think it
contains the information you're looking for.
Sincerely,
Stephen Dybing

make it to the end.
Thanks for the direction
