Getting ready for a system deployment tomorrow and looked at the Teratrax Management tool instead of the Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio Express (SSMSE). Teratrax tool is nice (adds more features for scripting and file management) but thought we'd opt to stick with the free SSMSE for now.

Went to run SSMSE and it doesn't run. Pointer flickers once and then nothing happens. Okay, uninstalled Teratrax and tried SSMSE. No change. Uninstalled and re-installed SSMSE, followed by a reboot. No change.

Argh! Does anybody have any suggestions on what to look for to get SSMSE back in gear? It make life much easier for the green admin like myself and we need it for the interim.

Daggumit, frustrating!

Thanks in advance of any advice or input provided.




Mmmmmkay. Yeah, did you get the memo about the TPS reports?

Mmmmmkay. Not sure on the voodoo behind it, but after a third uninstall and reinstall, everything seems normal for the moment...

However, if anybody still has ideas or input on this situation it might prove helpful for future reference.

Glad I am able to use the tool again...
