Installing SQL 2005 over the top of SQL Express

Hi,

I am installing SQL Server 2005 on a server that is currently running SQL Express. My reason for installing full SQL is due to the database size limitation of SQL Express.

Can anyone give me advice on whether I should unistall SQL Express before installing SQL Server 2005 or just install over the top of Express.

Thanks

In my opinion, it is better to uninstall SQL Express and then install your other edition.
