EM Crashes when I go to Database-> Properties

Ive got SQL 2005 Beta 2 installed along with my SQL 2K on my XP PC
Now when I go to SQL 2K EM .. And then right click on database and select
properties.. it crashes.. Have any of you observed that ? Let me know how I
can fix it.. I even tried rebooting and it doesnt help
Thanks
Hassan,
If the database in question is one of the SQL Server 2005 databases, you are probably out of luck. Some pre-2005 tools will simply not work with SQL Server 2005 because they can't support features that didn't exist when they were developed. If EM is broken when used with SQL Server 2000 databases, see if this advice from Microsoft about a different EM problem helps.
Like the rest of the current version of SQL Express this is a pre-release version, the permissions problem is a bug which we have resolved in the B2 build of SQL Server 2005. If you need to use EM before we update SQLDMO and Express, then go to the version of SQLDMO.dll thats in SQL Server 2000 directory and execute regsvr32 sqldmo.dll. This should enable EM to work as it was before against SQL Server 2000 but neither EM nor DMO will work against SQL Express in this case.
If things like this didn't happen, it wouldn't be beta software...
