You could probably also set up a slipstream for 2k5 install with the latest service packs and install it that way.

Your solution is pretty simple. Uninstall Express & install SQL Server 2005. Why would you need both running side by side when you have the full version besides there's less headache when you have only one instance of it.

Visual Studio installed SQL Server Express on my computer, which to date has satisfied my needs. I now need to do remote database support so need the full version of management studio. I tried to install the standard version but it is blocked, apparently because Express has newer versions of the files.

Can I do this? Will they play well together?

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
