These topics and the integration of SQL Server Express with Visual Studio
2005 are discussed. Compare this product with the existing Microsoft free
databases like MSDE and Jet.
I believe SQL Server Express is the replacement for MSDE. Although this is
the core database engine (I think this is correct), I was looking for the SQL
Server full edition that would include Enterprise Manager, DTS, Query
Analyzer, etc. tools.
In the past if you purchased a book on SQL Server you would get a 120 day
eval of SQL Server and all the tools.
