I think you will have to script it... I don't think InstallShield sql scripts view supports the database restore.... I might be wrong.

You should be able to restore a database by executing the RESTORE DATABASE statement.

Hi,

You can put the Sql backup file in the 'Support Files' view and then use Sql Scripts view's Text Replacement view to know the actual path of the Sql Backup file. You will have to use the SUPPORTDIR property.

Thanks!
