Can I install the .net sdk quickstart tutorials in a way that all the DB code
in the samples point to my SQL 2000 Server on a different machine than the
samples are installed on.
All my samples are coded to use the named instance of a local MSDE database,
'netsdk'. I don't want to install MSDE on my machine because I use full blown
version of SQL 2000 on another machine.

Hi
I think we can not do that.
Because the connectionstring in the source code is hardcoded, the setup
project just exact them into source code text file. We have no option to
change the behavior.
I think you would have to change it in the source code or web.config by
hand.
