Finally found out what it was.
It was an alias problem as you suspected - cheers for that.
For some reason (possibly due to SQL Express 2005 on the machine as well ?) new aliases don't apear to work.
When I changed the default server to be used in the options tab to 127.0.0.1 (rather than the actual server name or (local)) it worked.
Am having a few issues with the way it works, but at least it's working now [image] / comments

Helllooo ! Anyone there ?? Anyone got any other suggestions ? I'm fast running out of my 14 day trial period, and since I can't even get it to connect, it's highly unlikely I'm going to splash the cash to purchase it ! / comments

Nope, not set up any server aliases that I am aware of ( I don't know how to for a start !)
I do have SQL Express 2005 on my laptop as well as SQL Server 2000. Stopping the SQL Express had no affect.
What's changed from SQL Prompt 2 for connections (or is it completely different) ? As I mentioned, Version 2 has no problems connecting. / comments

Yes. I am logging in as 'sa' which is the owner of the database. I've been really busy this week , so have not had time to investigate further. I am going to trying setting up a database with Windows authentication and see if I can get in to that. / comments

OK, had a little time and created a database uing windows authentication and my user profile (which is an administrator) on my laptop. I changed the connections setting to use windows authentication for the (local) server and the database I had just created. Still get the same message as before.
I have re-installed SQL Prompt 2.0.0.59 and that has no problem retrieving the metadata for all databases....... / comments
