1433 is the default
otherwise you might be able to look in the registry (this is from sql server
installation, not msde - so it's a crap shot, but with good odds...)
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\MSSQLServer\ MSSQLServer\SuperSocketNe
tLib\Tcp]
"TcpHideFlag"=dword:00000000
"TcpPort"="1433"
"TcpDynamicPorts"=""

Without the Client Network Utility that is available in the full blown MS
SQL Server is there a way to find out what port the MSDE is running on?
Short and sweet, thats all I need
TIA
