VB.Net Standard 2003 and MSDE

Need some help bad here. Am using VB.Net Standard 2003 supplied for

homework. Following the documentation I can download sql2kdesksp3.ex e
and get the server running. I cannot then install the sample databases
according to directions. Log file follows:

Ok. Then I cannot connect to the server in VB.Net. One problem Is We are
using VS professional in class so the setup is different.

My Lab Tech cannot tell me how to do it. My instructor could not so he said
lets go see the Network gurus and maybe they will help. Well when I talked
to the Network geniuses their eyes glazed over and They said " Oh no we
can't tell you how to set up Sql Server and configure it in a few minutes.
You must take our classes". I said no no no Simple Msde setup to no avail.
I have tried every possible combinations from all the documentation I have
found. Any ideas. Thanks

Almost everybody here is using VB6 or lower. While you may get a stray
answer to VB.NET questions here, you should ask them in newsgroups devoted
exclusively to .NET programming. Look for newsgroups with the word "dotnet"
in their name.

For the news.devx.com news server, try these

vb.dotnet.discu ssion
vb.dotnet.techn ical

For the microsoft news server, try these newsgroups...

microsoft.publi c.dotnet.genera l
microsoft.publi c.dotnet.langua ges.vb

There are some others, but these should get you started.
