      Most likely the SQL Server 2008 is named instance so you should provide the server name as: machinename\instancename. You can check the instance name for example from Windows Services.

      The need to optimize rises from a bad design.My articles[^]

          so if you specify that to server name, what happens? Do you get an error and if you do, what kind of error.

              Ok, that's the problem. You just have to use newer SQL Server Management Studio. You can download version 2008 from here: http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=7522a683-4cb2-454e-b908-e805e9bd4e28&DisplayLang=en[^]
