Is it expected that I see no non-system databases (DNN, etc) under SQL Server Management Studio? My DNN installation is working just fine but all I can see are the system databases.

I was assuming I'd be able to use standard SQL processes/tasks to backup/restore/query the DNN database. Am I wrong?

Running on SQL Server 2008 Express.

Thanks.

Mark

If you are running on SQL Express you need to connect to the database with SSMS, it won't be added in automatically due to the way the files get attached at runtime for DNN
