>This is SQL Server 2005 Express Edition. I am only trying to use the menu item that says \Data then \Add Data Source<

OK, I'm lost now. I asked you which Visual Studio you're using, not which SQL Server. You said in your first post that you were trying to add a DataSet (to what? a form?). I don't see a menu item that says "Data | Add Data".

>My installation of SQL Server 2005 Express does not work. The connection wizard uses OLEDB.<

What do you mean your installation did not work? If it didn't work, I don't see how you can access it from Visual Studio. Am I missing something?
