No Management Studio seen after SQL Server 2008 Express installation

I have recently successfully completed the installation of SQL Server 2008 Express.

After installation when I tried accessing SQL Server Express I found there was no Management Studio installed.

Is there an issue with express, that Management Studio is not installed during installation?

If yes how do we access SQL Server in this case?

I also tried installing Management Studio separately but however when I tried to login through the installed Management Studio the server was not found.

Am I missing something?

Does SQL Server Express not come with Management Studio?

Please Assist. Thanks

The SQL Server 2008 Management Studio Express can be downloaded from here. You'll need it to use a management studio with Express edition.

sql server 2008 express does not have management studio. There is a Management Studio Express, but, IIRC, it must be downloaded separately.
