I have an SBS08 server and I have installed the prerequisites. Now I'm trying to install GP and I'm stuck at the ODBC connection screen. I have SQL Server 2005 installed along with Server Management Studio Express. I can see three existing databases: Act7, microsoft##ssee and sbsmonitoring.

I cannot figure out how to get past the ODBC dialog screen. I have plenty of experience with SQL Server Enterprise up through 2003, but this new interface is completely foreign to me. I'm used to connecting to a server and then being able to manage databases. It seems that each database is now a "server".

The dialog is asking for the name of the sql server. I have no idea what to put here. I've tried the server name which did not work.

What do I do now?

Thanks
