Issue
Using the SQL database upgrade program for Vista is it possible to connect to a "real" SQL server without a instance name which is installed on the same computer ?
Environment
TAC Vista 5.1.7 and later.
TAC Vista SQL Database upgrade.
Cause
When specifying the server name the default is .\TACVISTA, the . is the PC name and the TACVISTA is the instance name.
Resolution
So if the SQL server is installed on the same computer and have no instance name just type .\ on the Server path.
