Hi allI am a part-time Access/Excel developer who would like to start on SQL. I have identified SQL Server as the one to go for as:- I already have it (partially) installed on my system (see below)- I pretty much exclusively use MS products, so suspect SQL Server will place nicely!So here's my question(s) - I already have SQL Server on my system, as I have it installed with Business Contact Manager for Outlook (2013). Here are the install details:Version: is, I think, 10.3.5500.0) SQL progs installed on my system:SQL Server Config ManagerSQL Server Installation CentreError & Usage ReportingImport & Export DataNo sign of SQL Server Management Studio (whihc is what I think I need on top of the baove installed components - but would appreciate more info on this?). So my question(s) really are:- what else do I need to install to start setting up my own test SQL DBs? (is it just SQLMSS?)- will anything I add in any way interfere with my current install that is part of BCM (I cannot risk mucking up that install at all)- would a clean install of SQL Express 2012 (SP1?) on top of my 2008 install be a better idea?FYI I have a Win8 PC with Office 2013.All advice greatly received |
