                                            | Hello Friends,I need to install SQL server 2005 in my desktop. I have already installed Visual Studio 2005 and selected to install all add ons during initial installation of VS 2005.Now, when i inserted my CD for installing SQL server 2005, there is nothing that has to be installed. I checked that SQL 2005 Express edition is already installed in my system. Kindly let me know, if by installing VS 2005 with all add ons will install SQL server 2005 as well?Many thanks.Regards,Ramki |
