I installed SQL Server 2005 management studio, but I did not recieve a
shortcut to the program.
How do I run SQL Server 2005 management studio?

How do you know you installed it? Search your system for sqlwb.exe ...

I have searched for sqlwb.exe, but I can't find it on my computer.

Do you Management Studio or Management Studio Express? What *EXACTLY* does
it say in Add/Remove Programs, so I don't have to guess?

If you installed the downloadable Express edition, then that is not the
program name. You need to tell us what you installed exactly. Again, it
helps prevent guessing (wrong).

This is "SQL Server Management Studio Express" that's why its name is
different than Aaron's offer.

FYI: It's a limited edition of SQL Server Management Studio, hopefully you
have already read the readme stuff and know about the limitations.
