    How can I configure MAP to see its database inside my local MS SQL Management Studio while it's filling out by MAP withotu reattaching/restoring it? I can run the MAP database backup and then restore it in my local SQL Server Express and run my queries, but I cannot see the real live MAP database in my MS SQL Management Studio while it's gorwing up. Why?

    You connect to the MAP instance of localDB by using “(localdb)\maptoolkit” for the server name.

    Just got the answer from Mike Switzer (Microsoft) in email. Thanks, Mike! It worked on my machine.

    You have to use SSMS 2012 to connect to LocalDB.

    That's because you are using the computer's host name instead of (localdb).
