Database Upgrade 5.0 to 5.5 with MS SQL 2008 Express
How does one run the Update_5_0_to_5_5.sql file when using SQL Express?

The Management Studio 2008 Express does not seem to run .SQL files.

The .SQL file should just be a text file. Open it up in a Query window (or copy and paste) and press Execute.

Hello.

It is like in previous reply. It does not depend on SQL server´s edition, you can run this query on your SQL Server Express edition with no problem or limitation. If does not work for you, could you please describe the problem in more details? Thank you.

Best Regards,
Radek Macalik

RE:Database Upgrade 5.0 to 5.5 with MS SQL 2008 Express
Thanks for your help. I have made it work, but had to do so using sqlcmd (command line).

The Management Studio Express I have loaded would allow me to do the update if I were using MS SQL Express 2005, but I have 2008.

Not a problem, I figured it out and everything works fine.
