sql server express error

  • i'm tryng to use sql xpress in vs2005, but when i try to create a new db or open an existing db i get an error:

    an error occurred when you try to connect to sql server.

    note that i have enabled all connection methods tcp/ip,...

    can You help me

  • I don't believe you can create database objects using a remote connection to SQLExpress.  You might need a higher level edition of SQL Server.

  • what are you saing?

    i want to create a simple database and access an existing database as i usually done before this problem

  • If you installed a brand new SQLEXPRESS instance, remote connections come default off. You can use "Surface Area Configuration" to turn it off. (Under database engine > Remote Connections)

    Cheers,
