SQL missing

Sorry for such a simple question, but I've just
installed .NET from my MSDN subscription, and it didn't
install SQL, so I'm stuck trying to follow a walkthrough.
We have SQL server on CD, but that refuses to install on
my development machine :-(
 
you need the developer edition of SQL Server to install onto a non-server
version of windows. The MSDN install won't install SQL Server - it's a
separate installation. There's always MSDE?

OK thanks! Obvious corollary: where can I obtain
this "developer edition"? I can see it on another machine,
but we have a mountain of CDs to search through :-(

I imagine you can download it from MSDN if you can't find the CD. SQL Server
Developer edition comes with the developer and architect versions of VS.
Otherwise you'll need to obtain and install MSDE, which you can get from all
over the place.

cheers,
