I have a SQL Server 2005 database... a copy of it is running in development on a full version of SQL server. Another copy is running in SQL Server 2005 Express on a web server.

I've used SQL Profiler and saved a Tuning trace log from activity on the SQL Express copy of the database.

I want to use the saved trace log in the Database Engine Tuning Advisor...

If I try when connecting the Advisor to the Express database, I am told that Express is not supported.

If I try when connecting the Advisor to the SQL Server database, I get empty results.

Is there any way to do this?
