Hi - I'm new to SBS. I just installed and the primary focus of my installation is SQL. I installed SBS 2008 seemingly without issues and then installed the provided SQL 2005 standard, but none of the tools seem to be installed. It installed the EXPRESS version of SQL Server Management Studio, but it does not seem to let me install the NON-EXPRESS version. I just tried Disk #2 of SQL (which it never asked for) and the tools are there, but it won't let me install them saying they are already installed. If they are, they certainly are hiding well because they don't show up on the start menu. The only Management Studio on the start menu is the Express version. Has anyone seen this? I could see that just MAYBE 2005 doesn't allow you to install the client tools on the server, even though I'm used to them on SQL 2000, but I just don't know.

Thanks in advance!
