Error while creating tables

  • Hi,

     

    I'm using the SQL Management  Studio Express from a machine to connect to the sql server(2005 enterprise edition sp2) and modify a table on a database but get the following error.

     

    TITLE: Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio Express

    ------------------------------

    The system cannot find the file specified.

    (Microsoft.SqlServer.Express.SQLEditors)

     

    I have DBO rights on the database.

    One more thing when I open SQL Server Management Studio Express

     I get the following message

    Access to the registry key HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsot\Microsoft Sql server\90\Tools\ShellSEM denied

    After this when I click on continue it opens up.

  • This sounds like a permissions issue with your SSMS installation rather than a database error.  You mention that you have dbo rights on the database, but do you have administrative permissions on the computer from which you are attempting to connect?

    Can you run the same query using the sqlcmd utility and see if you get the same error.

    I'm having exactly the same issue. However, folder ShellSEM doesn't exist in registry. Can someone please tell me where to start the troubleshooting? Thanks..
