Greetings,

I just received a new laptop with Win XP Pro (SP2) installed. However, I
found to my suprise that DTC is not listed as a service when I tried to
install SQL 2005 Developer. I see msdtc.exe and it's associated files in
System32, but cannot figure out how to get it into the services window so it
can set up to run. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
