SQL SERVER - Connect using Enterprise Manager to SQL Server 2005/2008 ssms I received the following email from Mike Bikinis. about enterprise manager. I have just updated the blog post with the latest information from the year 2019.

“How can I connect to SQL Server 2005 or SQL Server 2008 using SQL Server 2000’s Enterprise Manager?”

No. You can not connect with SQL Server 2005 and higher version using Enterprise Manager. You will need SQL Server Management Studio available with SQL Server 2005 and higher version.

Update in the year 2019

It has been many years since SQL Server 2000 released now. Microsoft has moved on from SQL Server Enterprise Manager to SQL Server Management Studio. Here are few relevant blog posts which are related to new product SQL Server Management Studio.
