You need to download and install Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio Express.
You can use either the 2005 or 2008 version of Management Studio to connect to a SQL Server 2005 database.

Using SQL Server 2012 with SSMS 2008

I am using SSMS 2008 on an XP machine, trying to access a SQL Server 2012 database and get error messages indicating index out of bounds of array. What do I need to do to fix?
EDIT: (thanks #bluefeet ) : You can't install SSMS 2012 on Windows XP. See here: SQL Server 2012 Management Studio for Windows XP
Cause
The server you are connecting to is using SQL Server 2012. The error
is a result of incompatibilities with previous versions of SQL Server
Management Studio i.e. 2005, 2008, & 2008 R2.
Resolution
You will need to download SQL Server 2012 Management Studio to make
changes to your database. You can download it from the MSSQL Express
2012 website.
Source of Answer: You Receive Errors When Connecting to MSSQL 2012 Using MSSQL 2008 or 2008 R2 Management Studio.

But its not working. I have installed a Management studio express 2005 SP4. But its doing trouble. It connects the 2008 Database server but when i tries to view the table through design view it throws an error message "Unspecified error".

How to integrate SQL Server 2005 Express Edition to Visual Web Developer 2008 Express Edition

I use Visual Web Developer Express Edition 2008 and SQL Server 2008 Express edition. I have finished a project recently. But many of hosting firms don't have SQL Server 2008. So i decided to uninstall SQL Server 2008 and install SQL Server 2005. Then I would reproduce my database. I uninstalled SQL Server 2008, installed SQL Server 2005. In project, When i clicked "App_Data - Add new item - SQL Server Database", an error accured "Connections to SQL server files (*.mdf) require SQL Server 2005 to function properly. Please verify the installation of the component or download from the URL: http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?linkId=49251". I couldn't add a new database to my project.
So how do i integrate SQL Server 2005 Express Edition to Visual Web Developer 2008 Express Edition?
Check the setting under Tools > Options > Database Tools > Data Connections for the SQL Server Instance Name refers to the name of your SQL Express 2005 instance.
Check SQL Server Express is running using the SQL Server Configuration Manager.
