SQL Server Express 2008

I am going to install Vi开发者_如何学Gosual Studio 2010 Premium. I have SQL Server 2008 Express already installed on my laptop along with Visual Studio 2008 Professional.

Do I have to uninstall SQL Server 2008 Express or will it be configured to operate in the 2010 Environment?

You are good to go. VS10 install will recognize your instance and not present sql as an install option.

It's alright.

Make sure to install SQL Server 2008 SP1 though.

And also, don't make the mistake I did. If you happen to have win XP and you care about .NET framework 4, you have a problem because IIS 5.1 doesn't quite support it. You'll need to move to WIN 7.
