I have Visual Basic 2005 Express Edition and SQL Server 2000 Enterprise installed on the same laptop.

While creating a project in VB Express, I try to add a data connection but it never connects because VB Express thinks it is connection to SQL Express.

Under the advanced properties for the data connection it says "data source = .\SQLEXPRESS".

How do I get it to connect to SQL Server 2000 Enterprise? Or is that one of the hidden limitations to using the free express edition of VS?
