title: Create a SQL Database locally
body: <p>I'm looking to learn ADO.NET and such with SQL. However, i'm at home for the winter so I'm away from my school's servers which were configured already. I'm looking to run something like a local sql server and databases to just practice and learn with. I downloaded and installed MS SQL Server 2008 Express, but I don't know what to do with it to get this going. Are there any guides or materials I can reference to figure out how to accomplish this?</p>
