Our server is running 9.00.3054.00SP2Standard Edition

like you, when i create the same table on my stand alone machine everything works fine. My version is 9.00.3042.00SP2Standard Edition

Could this be a permissions...

Having installed management studio express the database still does not appear.

Would i be right in saying it looks like the it is just the file Events.mdf I have and this...

Thanks for the quick reply.

I do have ldf for the file Events.

And the following :

Events.mdf

Events_log.ldf

master.mdf

mastlog.ldf

model.mdf

modellog.ldf

msdbdata.mdf

msdblog.ldf

mssqlsystemresource.mdf

mssqlsystemresource.ldf

tempdb.mdf

templog.ldf

Would i be correct is saying that all that is installed is the SQL 2005 Database...

Many thanks for the advice, and duly noted.

The company has a policy of always going for the most stable release prior to new so it will be 2005.

Is there any...
