Re: [SQL-DMO] Service Control Error: Access is denied

I have just bought Recorder so have no previous experience with it. I get the above message when installing Recorder 6 for the first time. It occurs after the reboot. I followed the error report raised by Graham Hawker as it looked similar. I have installed the SQL Express Management tool and changed the sa login from blank to a password. Hower I still get the same message. I can now connect to the database from the SQL management tool successfully but Recorder is still throwing up this error. I have installed on a Windows Vista machine. Any ideas please?

Thanks for the help, Charles. I'll follow it through and post back here what the outcome is. If the worst comes to the worst I'll just install on an XP SP2 box.:)
