Hi,
I tried to install MSDE via the solution in the previous post, but when I run OSQL, there is an error (SQL Server doesn't exist, or acces denied).
So, I haven't solved my problem yet.

|||The second option was to download the eval edition which will allow you to install the MSDE as a second instance and I forgot to tell you OSQL is not a very user friendly tool. If you cannot download most SQL Server books from Osborne press have the eval edition I am assuming you can get them from library check outs. Hope this helps.|||Ok,
can you send me some hyperlink to that files?
Thank's

Here is the link and SQL Server developer edition is $40 less on the web. Hope this helps.
