  • Hi,

    Thanks for your kind reply.

    Yes i am trying to connect its instance.

    select @@version :

    Microsoft SQL Server 2005 - 9.00.1399.06 (Intel X86) Oct 14 2005 00:33:37 Copyright (c) 1988-2005 Microsoft Corporation Express Edition on Windows NT 5.1 (Build 2600: Service Pack 2)

    select serverproperty('Edition') , serverproperty('productlevel') :

    Express EditionRTM

    I executed the above query and its result is above.

  • as stated in your OP, DTA does not support SQLExpress !

    So you cannot use DTA with an SQL2005 express edition instance.
