I am ready to start using MSDE.
When I run the setup for MSDE it tells me I need to set the password. I have read the "help" on the MS web site but it is still not clear to me how I setup the password or anything else so I can get started.
I have found 3rd party Client tools that I can get a free trial. Do I need to get the Client tools BEFORE running the MSDE setup program??
Here is how to set it up.

Then you must go into services and start
MSSQLSERVER
SQLSERVERAGENT
Make sure both are on automatic.
The get MSDE Manager free here:
