  Hi I just downloaded Microsoft SQL Server 2008 Express SP3 CTP from http://support.microsoft.com/kb/968382. Does the express addition include BIDS? :ermm:

  As far as I remember, Express edition do include BIDS package. But I think there will be some limitations...

  use this link to compare it with different editions..

  Thank you! That's a good link. It looks like the express edition doesn't include BIDS.
