Whats going on?

Jun 28th, 2007
Hi, I've installed:

Microsoft Visual C# 2005 Express

Microsoft Visual Web Developer

SQL Server 2005 Express


How am I supposed to use sql server?
Can I use it from both C# 2005 Express and VWD?

I haven't got a clue whats going on, I can't even uninstall sql server.
Is there any instructions that are clear and actually work.

Thanks

Thanks I see it.

Now I need a database to try with it.
If you have one, could you email it to me?

colin.shuker@tiscali.co.uk

Or point me to where I can find one.

Thanks

You cannot email a database. See the same site for tutorials for creating a database its pretty easy.

Yes, one can detach a database, mail across the .MDF and .LDF files and these can then be attached as database at the other end.

no they have it - it just isnt shipped anymore with it as not everyone wants it on their system.

They have it for download with other samples at
