I've installed the MSDE and my taskbar icon says it's running.
I'm then trying to create an Access project (.adp) and and I'm faced with
the connection screen.
I type "local" as the SQL server name and check "trusted connection".
I then get an error saying:

Connection failed:
SQLstate: '01000'
SQL server error 53
[Micrsoft][ODBC SQL server driver][DBNETLIB]connectionOpen(Connect()).
Connection failed:
SQLState '08001'
SQL Server error: 17
[Micrsoft][ODBC SQL server driver][DBNETLIB]connectionOpen(Connect()).

Do I need to "create" as database with the MSDE or dos-prompt first?
Is is just the engine that's runing but I don't in fact have a database yet?
I'm experienced with JET but have never used MSDE.
Thanks for any help.

Back again. Just got it working. Dump typo on my part.
Hopefully I can come back for assistance with an actual problem.
Sorry for the inconvenience. .
