I am trying to use SQL Server Management Studio 2017 with local database.
When i try to connect to local database i get this
I installed SQL Server Management Studio from this link:
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/sql/ssms/download-sql-server-management-studio-ssms?view=sql-server-2017
I was searching the web for solution but i haven't found it yet.
When i open SQL server configuration manager
is what i see.
I also tried using different server names but i haven't had much luck with that.
Maybe i need to install some additional software?
Please Install SQL Server.
Your problem will get solved.
Thanks.
I am very naive to Microsoft SQL Server and SQL in general so excuse my ignorance.
We have this Microsoft SQL Server where we store our data from monitoring software. I need to run some queries and need to take a look at some data. Is there any way I don't have to remote into SQL Server to run these select queries?
Some sort of portal or light software I can download which connects to SQL Server and lets me do this.
Thanks in advance.
Use the SQL Server Management Studio. It can be downloaded separately.

All you need is SQL Management Studio. You can download it using this link: SQL Server 2014 Express. Please be sure to check the details to know the packages to select. Make sure to get the management studio checked.

I have been researching on how to sync clients SQL Server Express to a central SQL Server Express. At first I looked at Replication but the only issue is that replication is not supported if the central server is SQL Server 2008 Express.
I had to find another solution; I looked at the sync framework with WCF. At first it looked promising but the more I researched it the more I realized that documentation was extremely poor as well there were no samples for syncing SQL Server 2008 to SQL Server 2008 using Visual Studio 2010 project. I did find a few samples on blogs but could never get them to work. I am coming to the conclusion that sync framework is not the way to go because of the lack of support and samples for the product.
I am now looking into a custom solution which will require a great deal more coding and testing.
I was just wondering if anyone has had to sync production server SQL Server Express with clients also running SQL Server Express. How did you accomplish this and what technology did you use?
I'm stuck, any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thank You
if you're referring to the VS Local Database Cache project item, yes, it doesnt support SQL Express as a client.
if you're willing to hand code, the docs has a tutorial, see: Tutorial: Synchronizing SQL Server and SQL Express
other samples you can take a look at:
Database Sync:SQL Server and SQL Express 2-Tier
Database Sync:SQL Server and SQL Express N-Tier with WCF
I have created a database in SQL server Compact Edition.
I tried to attach it in SQL server
management Express, but it did not work.
Could anyone tell me how to see the data that I
saved using my VB.net code, as we can
see in Access.
When I load SSME, it asked for which server to
connect with. But my database is not saved on any server.
Please advise.
Thanks
Select SQL Server Compact Edition in the dropdown list when you start SSMS.
If you don't see it there, install SP2.
