Hi,

            You can install the developer edition for sql server 2000.

            Sql server 2005 does not use enterpise manager.  All editions
have a management studio.

As little addition to Ken before it is misunderstood.

Except the version SQL Server Express 2005 which has a (downloadable)_ beta
maintenance tool from which I have read in the ADONET newsgroup that it
would do its work.

I hope this helps,

And than I have to create an addition on my own.

The Enterprice manager can as you have it be used for all versions including
SQLExpress.
