Are SQL Server Express & SQL Server 2005 one & the same thing? Or is the former a part of the latter? Actually when I was downloading Visual Web Developer 2005 Express, I was given the option to download Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Express Edition as well; so I am getting confused between SQL Server Express & SQL Server 2005.
I installed SQL Server 2005 in my WinXP Pro m/c. from the Microsoft website (after re-installing WinXP Pro since XP became corrupt). Earlier I used to login to Management Studio Express using my m/c. name followed by a followed by SQLEXPRESS as the server name. So if my m/c. name is MyPC, then I used to login to Management Studio Express using MyPCSQLEXPRESS as the server name but now when I try to login to Management Studio Express using the above server name i.e. MyPCSQLEXPRESS, then an error gets thrown saying
Cannot connect to MyPCSQLEXPRESS.
Now how do I find out what's the server name so that I can login to create & manage databases in Management Studio Express?
Please note that after re-installing WinXP Pro, my m/c. name has remained the same; I didn't change it.

I have a view in a database called PS_EMPLMT_SRCH_US and it joins around five tables. I have two databases which are identical structures including data. But when run one query ie "SELECT * FROM PS_EMPLMT_SRCH_US where EMPLID like '00918%' and OPRCLASS like 'ALLPANLS' ", response time is totally different even though both databases have same data and same indexes. When I looked at showplan and stats time, both are totally different and order of table fetch is totally different. Is there any idea why this difference? Any help would be appreciated.
Here is the show plan info: ------------------------------------------------------------------- GOOD Performance Query and plan -------------------------------------------------------------------
SELECT * FROM PS_EMPLMT_SRCH_US where EMPLID like '00918%' and OPRCLASS like 'ALLPANLS'
