Hey folks, Look what Microsoft just released - for "free" no less! http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?familyid=220549b5-0b07-4 448-8848-dcc397514b41&displaylang=en It's advertised as the replacement for MSDE in the "Introduction" section of the "ReadMe" file. You also need to have the Microsoft .NET Framework version 2.0 installed - which is a HUGE download - before you download SQL Server 2005 Express Edition. (I guess I should ditch dial-up and get broadband ...) Looks to me like this is the "training wheels" version of SQL Server 2005. Alan C. Lawhon
