Hello all:
I am helping someone install SQL Express to manage some small databases.
They have been able to D/L and install SQL Express on two machines without
much issue. However, the third machine is Vista and after installing (with
the same user account) he cannot use SSMS Express to create a new database.
The error says that access is denied in Db Master.
Since he is remote, I have a hard time talking him through issues sometimes,
but now, with no expreience with Vista, I have no idea what to do.
Why would a *fresh* install of SQL Express (w/Sp2) not allow a new database?
I have heard that Vista is a pain with file security and other issues.
How do I get around this?
Thanks for your help.
