Incorrect Syntax near 'GO'... SqlCommand.ExecuteNonQuery();

Whilst building an 'custom action' to install a database, I encountered a SqlException ("Incorrect syntax near...") when calling ExecuteNonQuery(). To solve the problem process sql commands separately (using 'GO' as a delimiter). Thankfully parsing the ".sql" file into commands is fairly straight forward:

 

     string[] commands = sql.Split( 
        new string[]{"GO\r\n", "GO ", "GO\t"}, StringSplitOptions.RemoveEmptyEntries );
    foreach (string c in commands)
    {
        command = new SqlCommand(c, masterConnection);
        command.ExecuteNonQuery();
    }
    }
    catch (Exception e)
    {
        MessageBox.Show(e.Message);
    }
    finally
    {
        masterConnection.Close();
    }
}
