A colleague of mine has SSMS 2005 installed on her PC. And we're working on developing a new application using SQL Server 2008 R2 Express, on the users' desktops,
which means it has to be on our development boxes as well. We downloaded and installed SQL Server 2008 R2 Express onto her PC, I scripted out the definition of the database from my SQL Server 2008 R2 Express database, and ran the .sql in her instance.
I've had to make some changes to some constraints, so I tried getting into SSMS 2005 on her system (since that's the only version of SSMS she has installed) and fix it that way. However, she got errors when we tried to go into the table's design view
in SSMS 2005.
This leads me to wonder, is it possible to do table design editing in a SQL Server 2008 R2 Express database, using SSMS 2005?Rod
