I'm just wondering if I install SQL Express + Express Manger will this
include SQL Server profiler ?
If not is there any way to get SQL Server profiler without purchase a
complete version of SQL Server 2005 Standared or Entreprise editions ?

For development and testing purposes you can use SQL Server Developer
Edition which has the full compliment of tools.
David|||SQL Express Edition does not ship with SQL Profiler.
In order to use Profiler you need to have a license of SQL Server 2005.

Product Version query
I've just downloaded SQL Server Express (with advanced services) from both the main SQL Server Express website and from MSDN. When I right click on the exe I downloaded and go into properties the Product Version says SQLEVALVER. To me this implies it is an evaluation.
Can I confirm this is just a mistake and if we start to redistribute the product it won't timeout in the future? I am sure it is not an evaluation but just want to make absolutely sure.
hi,
but as long as you downloaded the correct binaries there's no problem, and it will install the appropriate SQLExpress version..
and this are not Eval binaries... they are just "free"..

Processor model
I have a server with 4 dual core processors.
If I install SQL Server 2005 Express edition on it (which is free), I do not
have to disable other 3 processors because by default express edition will
use at most 1 processor?
But if I use SQL Server 2005 Workgroup (or Standard) edition with one
processor license, I would have to disable other 3 processors at the bios
level to be legal? If I don't disable it, will it use all 4 processors even
though I only bought license for one processor?
Help would be appreciated.
JJ,
I could be wrong, but I believe you cannot get around licensing by
restricting the number of processers. I believe if you buy a license for one
processor, then you cannot use it on any server with more than one physical
processor.

SQL Server will use the lesser of either the number of supported or
installed processors. Workgroup supports up to 2 CPUs and Standard up to 4.
However you will be violating the license agreement unless you have
processor licenses for each processor socket available to the OS. See

Hope this helps.

Correct. SQL Server Express is free so the processing licensing model does
not apply,

SQL Server will use the lesser of either the number of supported or
installed processors. Workgroup supports up to 2 CPUs and Standard up to 4.
However you will be violating the license agreement unless you have
processor licenses for each processor socket available to the OS. See

Correct. SQL Server Express is free so the processing licensing model does
not apply,

Process in SQL Server 2005
Hi, I am developing an application with vb.net and sql server 2005 express edition. If a user logs in (through the application), I want to query the computer host from sql server 2005 in which the user logs on. Is there any special table or procedure that I can use to achieve this? Thanks.
