You can add sql script follow;) :
IF NOT EXISTS (SELECT name FROM master.dbo.sysdatabases WHERE name = N'IS_SQLSERVER_DATABASE')
BEGIN
CREATE DATABASE [IS_SQLSERVER_DATABASE]
END
GO
IF NOT EXISTS (SELECT name FROM master.dbo.sysdatabases WHERE name = N'IS_SQLSERVER_DATABASE')
BEGIN
CREATE DATABASE [IS_SQLSERVER_DATABASE]
END
GO

Thanks For ur quick response.
But how to inform the user about the existance of the Database.
e.g:
I want to display a message to the user that "The data base is already exist.
Do you want to reuse it?"
And according to the response i want to do some work.
how ?

Use InstallScript:
Function DataBaseInUse(szConnection, szServer, bTrust, szUserName, szPassword, svDB )
LIST listDBs;
NUMBER i;
begin
listDBs = SQLRTGetDatabases( szConnection, szServer, bTrust, szUserName, szPassword );
for i=0 to listDBs.Count
if(svDB = listDBs) then
MessageBox("information",WARMING);
endif
endfor;
end;

LIST listDBs;
NUMBER i;
begin
listDBs = SQLRTGetDatabases( szConnection, szServer, bTrust, szUserName, szPassword );
for i=0 to listDBs.Count
if(svDB = listDBs) then
MessageBox("information",WARMING);
endif
endfor;
end;

If you are using a Basic MSI or InstallScript MSI project, existing database names will be set to the IS_SQLSERVER_LIST Windows Installer property in a comma delimited manner after you call the ISSQLQueryDatabases action.

sorry but itsn't correct :
that occurs with the list of SQL SERVERS and "IS_SQLSERVER_FLATLIST" property., but not with the list of catalogs into IS_SQLSERVER_LIST
knows someone a way to do this?,
retrieve the catalog list of M$ SQL SERVER into a windows installer property
