i need to connect SQL Server 2008 instance with SQL Server 2005 Management Studio. There is a limitation on my Box that i can not upgrade the framework to 3.5. There are few applications running on my box which will stop functioning after 3.5 upgrade. Is there any way to achieve this? I GOOGLE this problem and found a Cumulative update package for this problem. i installed this too but there is no hope so far.

I would be very grateful if someone can help me out in this regard.

Can you not remote desktop to the box hosting the SQL 2008 instance and use the tools installed locally.

I have not connecting to SQL Server Management Studio. It shows me an error message like in 2nd picture. So, I could not connect to my local SQL Server 2012. How can I do it? Thanks in advance.
You just installed the management studio. You need to install SQl server. Here you need to install Sql Server and then Sql management studio.
Try . instead of Hello and see if that connects. If not, then you will have to install a new db instance because you don't have one.
Running the Repair Wizard from the SQL Server Installation Center has solved several of my connection issues when I've received errors connecting to localhost.
Choose Maintenance from the menu on the left, then choose Repair:
Two item have to be installed
SQL Server 2012 Management Studio Express
SQL Server 2012 Express
I had only installed only item 1, for this reason i am not getting any database in windows
authentication mode.
After then by the help of #marc_s, #CoOl and #Gin Uchiha i have solved my problem
by installing item 2.
And Thanks everyone for responding my question.
I have Installed Microsoft® SQL Server® 2014 Express , but I can't find SQL Server Services to run it in the "SQL Server Configuration Manager", so I can't connect to SQL server.
It's a problem because when I launch Sql Server Management Studio and that I try to connect me on the database server with server name "(local)", "localhost", "SQLEXPRESS",(local)/SQLEXPRESS, it doesn't work
I've seen in services.msc and I saw "SQL Server VSS Writer" launched automatically.
Do you have a solution ?
Thank you
If you download from http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=42299, make sure use SQLEXPRADV_x86_ENU.exe or SQLEXPR_x86_ENU.exe. SQLManagementStudio_x86_FRA.exe does not contains database engine.
I want to think that I had the same issue. When this happened to me, I went to the Configuration Manager only to learn that I had no Services whatsoever. I solved it by installing the SQL Server Express with with Advanced Services version from Microsoft.
I don't know whether you do need all its functionality, though. But what I do know is that it will solve your issue.
The problem is actually, I am pretty sure, that you have installed the Management Studio, not the Database Engine itself. You have to install the Database Engine. The response #Edward gave will lead you to the Database Engine for SQL Server Express 2014, that will do the trick.
I hope this helps to clarify what the problem was.
I'm on Windows 7 (64 bit). I cannot figure out why Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio does not exist.
I can see the SQL Server running and also tried installing SQL client, but I had no success with that.
I desperately need help please.
Thanks
In SQL Server 2016 it has its own link:
Just download it here: https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/mt238290.aspx
If you have the installation Disk(s), you can install Sql Server Management Studio (SSMS) by going into Add features to an existing instance of SQL Server 2008
See step by step guide here including screenshots.
We want to install sql server 2005 on Windo
ws 2000 Server. We are able to install database service engine, analysis services engine and integration services.
But we are unable to install workstation components like SSMS.
Does anybody faced this problem?
What is the fix for this?
Thanks,
Raghu
Make sure to have SP4 installed on the server, that's a prerequisite.

A while back, I installed SQL Server 2008 Express with Advanced Services, which installed SQL Server 2008 Management Studio (SSMS) Express as well. Now that we have SQL 2008 Standard on the network some months later, I want to confirm that I don't have to reinstall SSMS 2008 on my desktop. This blog post I found seems to suggest that I'm fine with the version of SSMS that came with SQL Express:
http://weblogs.asp.net/markwisecarver/archive/2008/09/02/sql-server-2008-management-tools-basic-vs-complete.aspx
...but I want to confirm. Unfortunately, the About dialog doesn't give details about an Express vs. a "Full" version of the tool. Anyone know?
Thanks.
They are different. SSMS Express appears to be somewhat of a hybrid of several standard SQL 2008 applications, each paired down to some extent and packaged together. Read more here. You can get more details on SSMSE here. If I were you I would install the full set of tools from the standard addition.
No, they are different. The Express edition of SSMS will work just fine with any higher edition of SQL Server, but it lacks some more advanced features (like the replication designers, etc.) of the higher-end editions.
