MSDE 2000 Release A

I just installed MSDE 2000 Release A. I expected to see an icon in the
system try which lets you start and stop msde. I've seen this before,
but it didn't appear on my machine. Can I get this icon to appear
somehow ? Thanks...

the icon in the systray area should be there, if you correctly installed
MSDE... it can be empty becouse of network protocols status, as reported in
http://support.microsoft.com/default...b;EN-US;814132 ..
if you can't find the Service Manager icon in the tray area, please verify
the service has been correctly installed checking the Services applet in the
OS management tools..
if it's there, up and running (:D) verify in your the "Startup" folder the
presence of the Service Manager entry, usually pointing to
"C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\80\Tools\Binn\sqlmangr.exe" /n

|||Thanks Andrea, the Service Manager was in my Startup, and clicking on
that caused the icon to show in the system tray. Then, I re-booted, and
the icon showed up. (I had not re-booted after installation)
