开始使用SQLServer2005,没用过MSDE,一开始还不知道怎么下手呢，呵呵

按如下方法（网上查到的）：

So onto the Command Prompt ! (wooohooo)

SQLCMD.exe will be your friend to explore the Beta 1 build of SQL Express. Here's how:

- Open a Command Prompt

- SQLCMD -E -S servername\instancename  (e.g.  SQLCMD -E -S guntherb01\sqlexpress)

- select name from sys.databases

- go

 

You'll find a list of the default databases in your SQL Express installation (master, tempdb, model, msdb). However, no sample databases - nothing !

 

So here's an (unofficial) tip to get some sample data in SQL Express (finally, this post is way to long) :-)
   - Download and install Pubs & NWind T-SQL scripts: http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=06616212-0356-46a0-8da2-eebc53a68034&DisplayLang=en

   - SQLCMD -S servername\instance -E (or -U sa -P password)

   - :r "C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server 2000 Sample Database Scripts\instpubs.sql"

   - :r "C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server 2000 Sample Database Scripts\instnwnd.sql"

To verify you have successfully loaded the db's :
- select name from sys.databases
- go
- Use pubs
- select * from authors
- go

Note that these T-SQL scripts were designed for SQL2000 (hence unsupported), but hey, they seemed to run perfectly on my SQL Express machine.

Now start enjoying SQL Express 2005 beta 1 !!!

这个版本的SQLServer2005 express 不包括full-text index
