Hello everybody

I have just installed VS2005. Everything went well. But It seems that with
VS2005   I got SQL Server 2005 , I think Mobile Edition   fix me if it
isn't.

Now , I am going to install SQL Server 2005 Developer Edition on my
workstation  so the question is  should I remove SQL Server 2005 first  OR
Mobile Edition  ( shiped will VS2005) will be overwritten by Developer
Edition?

Thanks

Hi,

Part of the default install of VS2005 is an install of SQL Server Express
edition. For development, the developer edition is a better option anyway.
I'd suggest removing the Express edition and installing the Developer one.

HTH,

Greg

One more question, why have I seen actually two SQL Server's 2005
installaltion in ADD/REMOVE PROGRAMM ? Should I remove both of them?

Thanks again

Do you have any other application installed that might be using SQL Server
or the MSDE? Some backup programs or Sharepoint, etc. etc. might be using
it.

Regards,

Greg

Hi,Greg
Thanks again  , It was my mistake, sorry . Can you tell me please how can I
explore the databasess in SQL Server Express?
I found no way to see the databasess and make some queries.

Do I need to install something else?  I'd like to see the query builder and
restore one dummy database .

Thanks again
