Right. The MSDE doesn't come with management tools. There are basically three ways to overcome that:
1. Use command line tools to create or manage users
2. Use T-SQL statements to create users. Use sprocs like sp_addlogin and sp_grantdbaccess to create logins for your database. Search this forum for sp_addlogin for more info.
3. Download the trial version of SQL Server. It comes with client tools that don't expire, if I am not mistaken. I am not sure whether your license gives you permissions to use the tools after the trial period, so you'll need to check that with Microsoft.
