I need SQL Server Management Studio!

Hi,

I have just completely installed MS SQL Server 2005 Express Edition in MS Server 2003.
After installation, I only have the Configuration Manager, Error and Usage Reporting and Surface Area Configuration, listed under Configuration Details.

SQL Server Management Studio is not accessible anywhere.
I also do not have the folder C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\90\Tools\Binn\VSShell in which the SQL Server Management Studio is installed.
What must I do to get this component installed?

In this article http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms143219.aspx, it is also written in step 8 that there should be a "Components to Install" page. I have done the installations and uninstallations a few times, but I still do not have "Components to Install" page. In fact, after step 7, I am brought to the "Features Selection" page.

What can I do to solve this problem? Please help.

Thanks.

You'll need to download the SQL Server Express Edition Toolkit. Get it at the following page:
