Ok, I see that people have asked this question before, but I'm seeing some conflicting statements.

Can I, or can I not, connect directly to my SQL Azure database from SSMSE 2008? I see posts from before November that the SSMS 2008 RC would be able to connect directly - so I don't understand why the newest SSMSE cannot connect.

Is it just a problem with the Express version of SSMS? Where can I find the "non-Express" version, if there is one?

I can connect to the database via the cancel and connect method - however, you don't get object explorer that way. I see that there are add-ons for VS.Net to allow you to explore the database but I wanted to do it with the base apps if possible.

Thanks
