Re: Windows 7 Issues for PT
I'm sure I've spoken to people who have. It should not be a problem to use SMS 2005 with Windows 7, but what will be a problem is SQL Server 2005.
Reason?
Because Windows 7 comes with SQL Server 2008 basically pre-installed as a key component of the OS. Vista has a cut down version of 2005.
It's used for the virtual folders and full-text search indexing both OS include as standard.

SMS 2005 wont install on Win7. It gives a message that the application is not compatible with this version of the OS. I am at the point of trying to figure out what to use in place of the xxx/sqlexpress.

Toad for SQL Server looks good.
Also EMS SQL Manager for SQL Server Freeware Edition which can be purchased for more support an functionality.
