  • Hi

    Enterprise Manager is a snap-in to the MMC (Microsoft Management Console) and if there is a problem with the MMC then maybe you could try the folowing:

    * Install a Service Pack for SQL - this may correct the error

    * Re-install SQL Tools from the CD

    * Investigate a way to re-install or correct the core MMC within the OS - if possible?

    Let us know if you come right

    Thanks

  • Thanks for the response!

    I have found the solution.

    When the message appears you have to go to

    C:\Documents and Settings\ \Application Data\Microsoft\MMC

    In the MMC folder, there is a file named "SQL Server Enterprise Manager".

    Just rename it.

    for example: "SQL Server Enterprise Manager112"

    Now when you click on the SQL Server Enterprise Manager shortcut in the start menu. SQL Enterprise will work fine.

    thank again.


    Thanx + Regardz,

  • Thanks for the feedback - we are all learning from the feedback.

    There is an actual exe for EM in the binn folder - maybe also trying to launch that directly could also be an option.

    Great to hear that your problem is solved
