Mgmt Studio

Can I manage MSDE databases in Management Studio? If not, how can I? How
about SQL Express?
When I try to attach an msde.mdf it just gets an "unknown error."

You can certainly manage existing instances of SQL Server 2000 (including
MSDE). But you're not going to be able to just attach a SQL Server
2000-based mdf (from MSDE or otherwise) to a 2005 instance.
