I installed MS SQL Server 2008 Express, and created a database A. Now I put the database A in a remote SQL server (a server in a web hosting company). Do I need to install MS SQL Server Management 2008 Studio Express (SSMSE)in order to connect my database A in the remote SQL server?

Any help from you will be highly appreciated. Thanks.

No, but it's the best tool for the job. Or SSMS (not express edition).

You don't have to, but I like to put them on the remote servers so that in a pinch I can still do admin-type stuff easily.
