| Hi I recently moved over to running windows Vista, I installed VS 2005 and then installed SQL Server 2005 and it seems that the mamanmegment studio has not installed for SQL Server. I think it has something to do with SQL Express that is installed with VS 2005.Does anybody have any ideas how i can get round this? I think I need to do something at the command prompt when i install it.Many thanks in advance |

SQL Server Management Studio (SSMS) is a separate product from SQL Server 2005, and therefore has to be downloaded and installed separately. If you're using SQL Server 2005 Express, just download SSMS Express and install it. You can find it on the Microsoft web site (sorry, don't have the URL handy). |

| SSMS comes with sql2k5, but you need download SSMSE separately for sql2k5 express. By the way, can use ssms to manage sql2k5 express. |

Then uninstall SQL Server Express, and install SSMS from the SQL Server 2005 CD. |
