Need help - SQL Express 2005 (Beta 2) - where to start ?

Hi,

My background:
Passed Bachelors in Computer Science 2 years back with distinction in
Canada. Had to do survival jobs for 2 years as the comp. industry was in bad
shape. Serious about building a career as .NET Developer.

Problem :
I downloaded and installed SQL Express 2005 (Beta 2). I want to create
tables and see whether I can get the data from the trivial windows based
application or web application I will be building in C# using Visual Studio
2003.

Question :
Where can I get the details regarding how to create tables in SQL 2005 and
how to get it connected with my application? Any suggestions regarding any
websites or good books that I can use to learn as well as use it as
reference in future.

Thank you for your time and willingness to help. Hope one day I'll be able
to help all those who are in need.

Best Regards,
Likhith

AFAIK, the current express version does not come with a tool - you'd
have to do it all with the command line tools.

Good sites to look for tips:
