I can only tell you what worked for me.

I created the DB using the free "Management Studio Express".

*THEN* I connected to it from VB Express. And then I could use VB to create tables in that DB and the tables are visible quite nicely from Management Studio Express, from other SQL Server clients, and of course from VB.

So it's only the need to create the DB outside of VB that may be hanging you up. Maybe.
