On my machine I had installed o.s. windows xp service pack 2, then I installed visual studio 2008 sp1 and then sql server 2008 r2 and sql server 2005 express. Upto that there was no problem to use sql server 2008 r2 and sql server 2005 express.
After that i updated o.s. windows xp service pack 2 to service pack 3, because i want to install visual studio 2010. then I installed visual studio 2010.
Now there is no problem to use sql server 2008 r2, but while using sql server 2005 express
its showing error message -"This version of Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio Express can only be used to connect to SQL Server 2000 and SQL Server 2005 servers.(Microsoft.sqlServer.Express.connectionDlg)"
I known that sql engine is 2008 so that the old version of sql server 2005 can,t connect.
but is any solution for this problem
can i install any newer service pack of 2005 sql server to solve that problem

I updated my Windows 7 to SP1 for the purpose to install Visual Studio 2013. I am successfully done my job to install Visual Studio 2013. But the problem arises when I try to install SQL Server 2008 or 2008 R2 Management Studio.
The SQL Server service is not running in services.msc and the SQL Server Browser service is not even listed in SQL Server Configuration Manager.
Please help me because I have install SQL Server 2008 Management Studio several times and update it also to SQL Server SP1 but still not running SQL Server service in services.msc.
Due to this I cannot connect my database engine.
Providing I also enter the correct instance name several times by following the link
Cannot register default instance MSSQLSERVER in SQL Server 2008
I/m trying to replicate a database whose .bak was created using SQL server 2008 R2, as in my local machine I was running SQL server 2008 I'm trying to upgrade.
It does the upgrade and the management studio shows the actual R2 version but the running instance is not changing, i.e. the Sql Server in the connection stills stays 10.0.1600
I uninstall everyting and run first 2008 and then the update, so I'm pretty sure it is the default instance and not a named one. And I couldn't install directly 2008 R2 because I was running through all kind of problems and that's why I'm trying to install 2008 first and then update
Anyone know if I can change that MSSQLSERVER version to the proper one?
Thanks

When running select##version as per Giorgi's comment I get this

I am running Windows 8 and need to develop SSIS packages.
The version of SSIS packages I need are SQL Server 2008 R2.
I am new to SSIS but it is my understanding that I need to install SQL Server 2008 R2 and Visual Studio 2010 in order to be able to create an Integration Services project (which will contain my SSIS package).Is this correct?
Does anyone know what I need to install? I have installed SQL Server 2008 R2 and Visual Studio 2010 Premium however I do not get the option of Integration Services project template.
I have Visual Studio 2012 installed but it is my understanding that VS2012 cannot be used for SSIS package creation.
You need Business Intelligence Development Studio (BIDS) if you want to create SSIS packages with SQL Server 2008 R2 version. BIDS uses Visual Studio 2008 Shell. Visual Studio 2010 is not required for SSIS development with SQL Server 2008 R2.
However, if you are using SQL Server 2012 then you need SQL Server Data Tools (SSDT) which uses Visual Studio 2010 Shell.
Answer to the below SO question contains the steps to install Business Intelligence Development Studio (BIDS) using SQL Server 2008 R2 installer.
How do I enable Integration Services (SSIS) in SQL Server 2008?
Windows 8 and SSIS development for SQL Server 2008 R2 and SQL Server 2012 works fine.
SQL Server 2005 will use the Visual Studio 2005 shell (devenv) for BIDS (Business Intelligence Designer Studio)
SQL Server 2008 and SQL Server 2008 R2 use the Visual Studio 2008 shell for BIDS
SQL Server 2012 uses Visual Studio 2010's shell for SSDT (SQL Server Development Tools). They have a roadmap for using Visual Studio 2012 environment as well but have not released the project templates yet.
For all those choices, you never need to have a Visual Studio installation. The SQL Server installer will put the shell onto your machine and the associated ssis/ssrs/ssas project types when you select the option in the installer.
I installed MS SQL Server 2008 R2 and it went ok but also automatically installed was MS SQL Server 2008 and Visual Studio 2008. Can I uninstall them? Or are they for some reason necessary for MS SQL Server 2008 R2?
I don't think, MS SQL Server 2008 R2 installation automatically installed VS 2008....Rather, It installs Business Intelligence Development Studio....Business Intelligence Development Studio is Microsoft Visual Studio 2008 with additional project types that are specific to SQL Server business intelligence.
Getting an error running a sample MVC2 site because of DB version errors. I ran the installer for SQL Server Express 2008 R2 and it finished, I rebooted. Try to run the site again and see the same error. Downloaded/ran R2 installer and chose upgrade but there is nothing to upgrade... is something wrong in my VS2010 or windows in general? Don't know what else to do.
Just ran a discovery report and 2008 is also installed. Maybe thats the problem?

I was able to connect VS 2010 to the SQL server database in this instance C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL10.SQLEXPRESS. Also ensure in SQL configuration manager, SQL browser and SQL instances are running and set to automatic and Network service
Seems to me it will be able to connect to SQL express database instances only when logged in as administrator VS 2010 express editions to create/modify an application.
Two installions. Had two instance names. Changed the instance name in VS2010 database tools.
