This is not making any sense !!!(well I am sure there is a reason for this and I am sure it makes sense as soon as I figure it out or when someone can help me figure it out).
I can not see my SQLExpress instance in the Server Explorer in VS2005. I know I have an instance of SQL Express running (because I have been playing around with the server settings for the last hour and restarting the service a dozen times), but I cant see it in the Server Explorer.
Then I got a great idea. I decided to start VS2003 to see what was in the Server Explorer in VS2003 and what do you know the SQL Express instance showed right up.
Is there something that I am missing in VS2005?
