I have MS SQL 2014 Management Studio installed on a laptop and it is currently used to connect to a number of SQL Server that do not reside on the local laptop. &nbsp;How can I get a local Server/Database set up on the local laptop so that SQL does not have to necessarily connect to the other SQL Servers?<br />

Thanks,<br />
