Nopers. And if you look above at what Rick just said, it might not be that easy for either one of us. May involve a complete reformat.

Please can anyone give me advice on setting up a development environment on a windows 7 professional 64bit machine. I'm using JAWS 11 & my questions are: - will the SQL 2008 enterprise edition work on Windows 7 64bit? - If I install SQL Business Intelligence Development Studio, do I still need to install Visual studio 2008? - If so, what version of VStudio do I need to install i.e. VStudio 2008 with SP1 or VStudio for X64? - Are there any known issues with SQL on windows 7 professional 64bit ? I want to get this right this time because I had a lot of problems trying to install SQL & VStudio 2008 on my system when I was using Vista. The Solution Management Studio refused to run. Thanks in advance.
