If I download SQL Server 2102 Express Edition, can I use that to connect to an external database, i.e., a web databse?

Thank you.

Not sure what you mean by "web database".
you can use the Express version to connect to servers that are not installed on the local machine as long as you have network access to the server. But I don't think you can connect via http over the web.
