Hey, Jim. I am sure that the members of this forum will do their best to help. The problem is that I tried everything suggested by Microsoft, members...

Thanks, vidhya! However, tried everything to no avail. Guess I'll use some other program, like MySQL. Best to you!

I can only log to the DABOSSES\SQLEXPRESS server with Windows authentication.

Have tried everything, step by step, and I still get the

message. I hope I'm not imposing but I would appreciate any guidance....
