Packaging MSDE2000 with VB.Net

[Hitz]

Hi,

Can i know how to package MSDE with vb.net as there
is no search topic found on the internet. i want to
package MSDE in such a way, that during installation of
application MSDE is installed as slient and the user
doesn't know about that MSDE is intalled.

I think that violates Microsofts MSDE license agreement.
