login controls don't find database, since I'm not using sqlexpress

I'm using Visual Web Developer (VWD), and I'm trying to experiment with
the "log in" controls. I want to have a password screen come up for
general users of the site.
The problem is, that VWD uses a database to store the userids and
passwords, and it can't find sql server.
When I first set up VWD, it asked me if I wanted to install sql
express. I said no, because I already had sql server on my PC.
Maybe thats the problem, VWD does not know where SQL Server is, or how
to gain access to it. So it cannot set up the login feature.
Is this fixable?
