I cannot uninstall SQL express 2005, it says .NET 2.0 is not installed, but it is!

Until I get the new SQL installed, my pages keep crashing!

Is the SQL Server 2005 Express Edition compatible with applications built in php?

Yes, you should be able to access it using PHP’s SQL Server library.

I’ve had the full version for a few weeks now from MSDN, and it requires you to remove all beta, beta2 versions of sqlXpress, .NET Framework beta, and any previous versions of Visual studio or visual web dev. If you do get your hands on the full verion such as Team Suite from MSDN, or pro/standard. Just remove your previous version of the .NET framework 2.0 (whether it’s beta1 or 2), remove previous versions of sql express, msdn help for version 2, and any VS 2005 betas. Reboot your puter, and install the new version, you’ll be set.

The new features in VS.NET 2005 are amazing, you can build business objects, or external dataset/data classes and visually connect and build gridviews etc from them. It’s a badass RAD….so many features.

Kevin, as always it appears you are right on top of things. Thanks for that.

I just recently downloaded and started to work with Visual Web Developer 2005 Express Beta 2 and having seen some of the ASP.NET 2.0 things demonstrated in this I have been wondering when they would bring it out of beta.

I’m just getting into ASP.NET myself so I am looking forward to being able to take advantage of some of the improved features, one of which is ASP.NET 2.0’s inclusion of the XHTML standard.

I think it will, I’m running Beta 2 without .net 2.0 installed so can’t imagine it will make a difference
