[RESOLVED] Server Explorer in Microsoft Visual C# 2008 Express

How to add Server Explorer to Microsoft Visual C# 2008 Express?

I click View menu and Server Explorer is not there so it looks like it is added manually, but how do you add?

There is no Server Explorer in the Express editions of VS. You have the Database Explorer instead, which is for local connections only.

Hmmm I wonder why the tutorial has this Server Explorer from Microsoft Visual C# Express..

I need to check back the tutorial again tommorow and confirm it is a Express Edition.

I looked at the tutorial again and it looks like the person is opening Server Explorer from Microsoft Visual Studio instead of Microsoft Visual C# 2008 Express.

Try the Database Explorer. It's the Express equivalent and may be able to do what you need, although it does have some limitations compared to the Server Explorer.
