> Can tables be created and viewed using the MSDE version of SQL? I have a
Cisco AVVID server that uses the SQL Server (I believe, the MSDE). It does
not come with any sort of manager or query tool. The AVVID server can be
scripted to query the server.

you are wrong... MSDE comes out with oSql.exe, a command line tool that can
perform any kind of activity against a SQL Server/MSDE server, from
management to query tasks....
please have a look at
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;EN-US;q325003 for further
on how to use oSql.exe...and
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/coprompt/cp_osql_1wxl.asp
for it's synopsis and guide....
but you are right if you mean tha MSDE does not come with graphical tools...
for replacement, please have a look at
http://www.microsoft.com/sql/msde/partners/default.asp and/or
http://www.aspfaq.com/show.asp?id=2442 or google for further
