Yes, pop in the right CD and specify to install the workstation components. It will not remove your
existing database engine components. But you first need to remove SSMS Express, since SSMS express
cannot co-exist with the "real" SSMS.

the server components part?

Below is a quote from your first post:

How do you copy a table from one database to another database using SQL
Server Management Studio Express for SQL Server 2005?

Can you see the contradiction between the two statements? :-)

It might be so that you didn't install Management Studio from the CD. I.e., you installed SSMS
from
an Express download. I suggest that you in SSMS do Help, About to verify. I do know that the
Import
and Export wizards are available in the regular SSMS.

I am not using SQL Server 2005 Express. I have the installation disk for SQL
Server 2005 Standard Edition. Does it not have the 2005 SQL Server
Management Studio like my SQL Server 2000 installation disk? If not, then
that is a downgrade.

SQL Server 2000's Enterprise Manager should be compared to 2005's SQL Server Management
Studio.
You
said you are using SQL Server Management Studio *Express* which is a *free* stripped SSMS. So,
you
are basically comparing apples with oranges. The Wizard in question *is* available in the pay
version of Management Studio.

Thanks for your replies. It looks like the only way is to use an INSERT
command but I can't understand why the export/import function has been
removed from the Tasks menu. It seems like 2005 is a step down from 2000.

I don't think the Import/Export tasks that Russell mentioned are available
in Mgmt Studio Express. But maybe you could make use of what the
Database Publishing Wizard produces. You find it at

I am not using SQL Server 2005 Express. I have the installation disk for SQL
Server 2005 Standard Edition. Does it not have the 2005 SQL Server
Management Studio like my SQL Server 2000 installation disk? If not, then
that is a downgrade.

SQL Server 2000's Enterprise Manager should be compared to 2005's SQL Server Management
Studio.
You
said you are using SQL Server Management Studio *Express* which is a *free* stripped SSMS. So,
you
are basically comparing apples with oranges. The Wizard in question *is* available in the pay
version of Management Studio.

Thanks for your replies. It looks like the only way is to use an INSERT
command but I can't understand why the export/import function has been
removed from the Tasks menu. It seems like 2005 is a step down from 2000.

Do I need other software to do this?

The easiest way would undoubtedly be to write an INSERT statement...

I don't think the Import/Export tasks that Russell mentioned are available
in Mgmt Studio Express. But maybe you could make use of what the
Database Publishing Wizard produces. You find it at

Yes, pop in the right CD and specify to install the workstation components. It will not remove your
existing database engine components. But you first need to remove SSMS Express, since SSMS express
cannot co-exist with the "real" SSMS.

Below is a quote from your first post:

Server Management Studio Express for SQL Server 2005?

Can you see the contradiction between the two statements? :-)

It might be so that you didn't install Management Studio from the CD. I.e., you installed SSMS
from
an Express download. I suggest that you in SSMS do Help, About to verify. I do know that the
Import
and Export wizards are available in the regular SSMS.

Yes, I do have the 2nd CD for SQL Server 2005. I don't know why it
didn't install the first time around. To install SQL Server Management
Studio which disk should I insert? I tried both disks and each time it
acts like it wants to reinstall SQL Server 2005 which I don't want to do
and so I cancelled. Can I install Server Management without
re-installing SQL Server itself?
Yes. I would start with the first CD, and then select workstation
components only. If you were to select Database Engine, you would install
a second instance.

But I have heard of people who have inserted the Tools disk and then
started the setup from there. I will have to admit that sounds a little
spooky to me, as the feature selection is on the first disk. Then again,
I guess you can run that setup from the command line.
