Hi biobot,
SQL Server Management Studio Express is tool that can connect to the SQL Server instance, so that we can use it to manage the objects in the SQL Server instance. However, it can not directly the open the database file via ?File | Open | File?? (except mobile database).
If you need to use SQL Server Management Studio to view othe objects in a database, the database must already been registered in the SQL Server instance. To register an existing database in a SQL Server instance, you can use ?Attach? like mkamoski said.
By the way, the table you posted does show any information to us. You probably need to clarify what the object type. Is it a table or view? What?s the table name of view name? Additionally, post the column name will be helpful.
Sincerely,
Benson Yu
