You connect to MSDE the same way you connect to any SQL Server. IOW, you'll nedd server name/addres and instance name, if it's named instance.

>I have an MSDE database being used by an application, but the tempdb log file keeps getting too large. How can I connect to this to set it to simple logging? The server space is very limited and specific to this application. There is not room to install SQL Server Enterprise.
