Data Connections for SQL Server Express in Visual Studio Express

I have an Excel add-in that connects to a SQL Server Express 2005
database. I've decided to create a configuration piece for this add-in
in Visual Studio 2005 Express. I added a data connection using the data
connection wizard and all appeared to go well. Anyways when I attempt
to open SQL Server Express to administer the database, it was corrupted
and I had to restore it.

I eventually got it to work correctly (I'm pretty sure I followed
pretty much the same steps as before), but I was just wondering if
anyone had experienced problems like this? I find it a bit scary that
it may be that easy to corrupt the database by just creating a data
connection.
