client question

#41

What disks do you have? You should be able to just run the normal setup
from the SQL Server install disks on your computer. Then select the client
tools and deselect the SQL engine. That should get you the tools without the
instance.

I already have a SQL server instance install on a server. I'm trying to
find out how to connect to it from my desktop. I can't seem to find the
install program.

SSMS is a client tool that can be installed anywhere (client or server).
Regardless of where it is installed you can (given the proper permissions
of course) connect to any SQL Server instance installed either locally on
that machine or remotely on another. SSMS itself can not run the query it
just submits it to the server. So I am a little confused as to your
question. Do you already have a SQL Server instance with a database that
you want to connect to or are you asking if you can install a fresh
instance?

not sure if this is the right group for this question...please redirect

Is thee a way the SQL Server Management Studio on my local computer so
that I can run queries, etc.?

I tried running setup from Disk 2 and thought it would do what I was
trying to do, but nothing showed up in all programs after running the
install.

#42

I just tried that but it did not install the SQL Management Studio.

The only things I canget to show up are Configuration Tools -- SQL Server
Configuration Manager, SQL Server Error and Usage Reporting, SQL Server
Surface Area Configuration, Notification Services Command Prompt, Reporting
Services Configuration

Is there something else I need to do to get the Management Studio?

Thanks.
