Hello Mr EM,

Is your computer on a LAN?

I have installed MSDE 2000 with a named instance of VSDOTNET and I also
have SQL Server Developer addition installed as the local SQL Server.

When I open the sever explorer window in VS 2003, I can see both servers
listed under the SQL Server node. I cannot expand these servers to get to

the DB's under them. Both have a small red x on the bottom left of their
icons, as if to indicate they are not running. Both SQL servers are mix
mode authentication and both servers are running (I see them running in the
services and in the SQL Server Manager). Is there something in Visual
Studio 2003 Academic that needs to be flipped in order to expand these
servers to get to the DB's?

All I can think of is I installed VS 2003 academic over VS 2003 90 day
trial and something did not take. Visual Studio's splash screen indicates

that it is the 2003 academic version.

Any help would be appreciated.
