I have a fold on my C drive and I don't know how it got there. The folder name is MSSQL7. I can only imagine that it is MS SQL server. How do I use it? What exe's should be run to start the server? Once it is running, how do I test it? Create a database? Query the database? I am familiar with sql statements, just not how to send them to SQL server. Any comments?

During the installation of the software my company makes, it installs the MSSQL7 on standalone machines. As far as I know, MSSQL7 won't do much of anything by its self. It's more the "force" that drives database applications.

Actually I've been able to start a service that looks like a database server. It appears that it is looking(waiting) for something to give it a purpose. I am just trying to see if it something I could use for testing.
