I am just starting with VB 2008 Express Edition. At Start Page/Getting
Started/Learn VB we're sent to Visual Basic Guided Tour page. The 8th step
"Managing your records: Using data in your program" instructs on how to
create a Database using SQL Server Compact 3.5, which is installed.

At the 7th step - database creation - after giving a name to the
database, when I click Add, the Data Source Configuration Wizard opens with
the message:

An error ocurred while retrieving the information from the database:
Cannot open log for source 'vbexpress'. You may not have write access.

OS: Windows Vista Ultimate 64bit

Thanks for any clues,

Peter
