    Well, for me in both VB.NET and VWD 2005 Express editions the "Create New SQL Server Database" is greyed (disabled). But also if you see the comparision page for Visual Studio 2005 Editions:

    http://msdn.microsoft.com/vstudio/products/compare/default.aspx

    You will see the feature "Server explorer 'Servers' Node" which is say No in Express edition. I might be wrong in understanding the feature exactly.

    Thanks

    That is not the right answer.  I can jump over into VWD 2005 Express and "Create New SQL Server Database..." all day long.  However, in Visual Basic.Net 2005 Express the menu item is greyed out.  This is not a feature, it's a bug.

    If you are using Express edition, this feature is disabled. For more details see Visual Studio 2005 compare edition web page:
