While installing SQL Server Express ADVANCED, I get the message

The SQL Server 2005 Express Tools are installed. To continue, remove the SQL Server 2005 Express Tools.

I am not sure what this means - there is no entry in my list of programs call ..... Express Tools

I do have SQL Server 2005 installed - does it suggest I need to uninstall SQL Server 2005

I have no reference to TOOLS

Thanks

If you don't have this, you need to download it. I don't know what your ADVANCED is
