Enterprise manager compatibility

Hi
I trying register SQL Server 2005 Express Edition instance in Enterprise
Manager 2000 without success. Enterprise Manager 2000 do see instance and
lists its name in the list of available servers. But connection check
returns error: "SQL Server does not exist or access denied. ConnectionOpen
(Connect())".
Is Enterprise Manager 2000 compatible with SQL Server 2005 instances?Igor Solodovnikov (IgorSolodovnikov@.discussions.microsoft.com) writes:

No, you cannot connect to SQL 2005 with Enterprise Manager 2000. Query
Analyzer works though. (With some restrictions.)

No. Use SQL Server Management Studio for 2005. SSMS can also manage SQL
Server 2000 instances.
