Visual Studio 2008, Windows 8.1/64 and SQL server
-
I've just installed Visual Studio 2008 Pro in Windows 8.1/64, but without the included SQL Server Express 2005 as it's not compatible with Win 8 according to MS. So what can I use instead which is compatible with both VS 2008 and Win 8? SQL Express 2008? I just need it for developing apps that uses an SQL database, nothning else. I'm also going to install Visual Studio 2013 Pro so it must be an SQL version that doesn't conflict with that. I assume that whatever SQL version that comes with VS 2013 (just bought it so I actually don't know what it installs) won't work with 2008, or what?
