Build Your Own ASP.NET 4 Website Question

.NET
1

I just bought the book Build Your Own ASP.NET 4 Website Using C# & VB 4th Ed. and tried to use it by downloading Web Developer and The SQL Management software. When I tried to connect using the management software at the dialog box that is titled “Connedt to server” I got a message saying that the server was not found or not accessable.

If this is the correct forum to ask this question, I hope someone can help if it is not the right forum can some one direct me to the correct one. Does the book have a specific forum?
