SQL Server 2005 association

  • Hello; I am totally new to SQL Server. I did have 2008 installed but I had a better experience with 2005. So I am now running SQL Server 2005 express w/ advanced. I am also running Visual Studio 2008. I created my database in VS. but when I try to run my program I get this error:

    Login failed for user". The user is not associated with a trusted SQL Server connection.

    Please Help

  • Change the Authentication type to Mixed Mode it should work.

  • Hi,

    In SSMS, rt click server properties -> security -> server authentication -> sql server and windows authentication mode.
