Connecting to Data in a SQL Server Express Database. [modified]
-
I have Visual Studio 2010 Professional and SQL Server Express installed. I am following the MSDN walkthrough for connecting to Data in a SQL Server Express Database (Windows Form). I have downloaded and installed the Northwind sample. I opened a new windows form project and then attempted to add a Service-based Database. An error message comes up: Failed to generate a user instance of Sql Server due to a failure in starting the process for the user instance. The connection will be closed. This message comes up everytime I make an effort to connect to SQL in any way. Can anyone help me? Thanks Darrall Also I have a 64 bit OS and that was a bit of a problem in installing the SQL
