FAQ: Installing SQL Express side by side with SQL 2000 Enterprise Manager seems to break EM. It is still broken when You uninstall Express. SQLDMO9 is culprit. MS is supposed to release a new compatible version of EM to work with Beta real soon now. http://blogs.msdn.com/sqlexpress/archive/2004/07/04/172956.aspx http://blogs.msdn.com/sqlexpress/archive/2004/07.aspx MS is supposed to bring out a new working version of EM that works against SQL Express but hasn't released it yet. I think you reregister sqldmo.dll But if you do EM won't work against SQL express. Gotcha ;) Install on different machines or use something like vmware.
