Microsoft SQL Enterprise edition follows and uses it’s own License, you need to install it through the Web or offline Setup only.
It’s a paid licence product, witch Express and Compact Editions are not, and this last two editions are the ones that you can pack with your application as their licenses allow you to do so.
You can always use a file that can run on a database to populate with records, or use, for example, Windows SQL Azure to have a centered database and Export / Import your schema with data.
