But then i'm unable to install as it asks for an instance name. I tried to follow the instuctions from the readme file and provided with an SA password and instance name but even then I got an error message saying "InstanceName is invalid". How do I provide it and install it. Also I would like to know which is a good version to start working with SQL server. Can you also provide me with information about purchasing the software." |
