Installing VS2005, SQL Express and SQL server 2005 Dev edition

Hi Everyone,
I bought visual studio and installed it yesterday. In the pack was the
SQL server 2005 Developers edition DVD so when it came to installing VS
i decided not to bother installing SQL Express - didn't see much point
in having the express version and the fully loaded version installed.
Installed everything and then created a new project - went to add a
database to the project but it said i couldn't because i didn't have
sqlexpress installed - is there anyway i can get it to use SQL 2005
instead or do i have to have SQL Express installed to create 2005
databases?
Cheers,
James

I have VS 2005 Pro and Team installed and want to install Expression Blend. In its install instructions it says to install VS 2005 Express afterwards. I don't know if it actually requires vs express to run properly or if they are making a huge assumption that nobody with VS 2005 will be installing expression blend. if I need to install VS Express, will there be a conflict with VS pro? -- moondaddy@noemail.noemail

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
