Thanks, Sylvain. I had to change (local) to (local)\SQLEXPRESS (the "\" as
opposed to a "/" was critical), and checked Trusted Connection, and it
worked. I found the SQLEXPRESS name in the Tools-Options-Database Tools-Data
Connections section of VS 2005.
As to whether I installed SQL 2005 in the mixed mode, I don't know. I
installed it as part of a full installation of Visual Studio 2005
Professional Edition.
