Hi Guys

I'm trying to set up sql sever 2008 enterprise version (free trial) and there is a message i received "Sql server 2008 Setup requires .NET Framework 3.5 to be installed" even though I have already got .NET Framework 3.5 SP1 on my computer.

Has anybody got idea why its behaving this way? any information would be really appreciated.
Thanks

Sp2 is going to ask for v4 so you might as well install that.

Cursors are useful if you don't know sql.
SSIS can be used in a similar way.
