Hi
I have SQL Express 2008 installed on a development server running Windows Server 2003 for Small Business Server. I have tried to create several new databases with tables using Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio but when I disconnect and reconnect to the server instance and click the + tree expander in the Object Explorer I get error 1038 Failed to retrieve data for this request (Microsoft.sqlserver.Management.Sdk.Sfc) An Exception Occured while executing a Transact-SQL statement or batch. (Microsoft.Sqlserver.ConnectionInfo). Cannot Use empty object or column names. Use a single space if necessary. Line 1:Incorrect syntax near".Microsoft SQL Server Error:1038). If I browse to the databases through My Computer I can see they are there and I can view (but not change) the tables in Access. Any assistance on this would be most gratefully received. Best regards, David.

Probrably because you don't have access to the databases. You need sa to give your rights to them all or use the system admin login and password.
