User Interface for SQL Server?

Migrating from Access to SQL Server you realise, that you suddenly do not have any user interface....
I have created an Access front end with an ODBC connection to the SQL Server, but surely there must be alternatives?

Check for "Sql server manage ment studio "  under start-> programs -> sql server 2005

Or else type "sqlwb.exe" at the start->run  prompt

The UI for SQL Server is SQL Server Management Studio. The part that is a pain is that it's not installed by default. Managerment Studio is part of the "Workstation components, Book online, and development tools" item in the components to install screen of the setup.  Or, if you pick advanced on the components screen, it's in Client Components / Management Tools.

Thanks - I already have the Server Management Studio (Express) up and running, but I was thinking along the lines of creating forms and reports - a real application so to speak, and not just table data and query-results.
