I'm not quite sure I understand your question, do you mean that you wish
to distribute an "all-in-one" installer for a client machine that will
include both your app and PostgreSQL?
It all depends on the complexity of your database backend. If this is
small, quick-and-dirty app, I don't know if PostgreSQL is the best
match for a setup like that. Other people on this list may disagree,
but I tend to think that a full-blown RDBMS is overkill for that sort of
problem. If your app is in C/C++, you may want to check out SQLite:
http://www.sqlite.org/
If you're programming in a Windows-centric environment, you may want to
consider using an Access .mdb backend and programming to it through ADO.
