Hi Laurie, I use those commands in two batch files:
start SQL Server.bat net start "SQL Server (SQLEXPRESS)" net start "SQL Server Browser" stop SQL Server.bat net stop "SQL Server Browser" net stop "SQL Server (SQLEXPRESS)" Then you can launch them programmatically. Change the service names to reflect those on your SQL Server installation.
