I am not sure that this is the right place to ask this, but because all here are programmers, maybe someone could help me.

I always used 2008 express, I decided to try the 2010 version today. The problem now is that I need to check something in the object explorer, but I can't find it anywhere.

A: 

I'm not familiar with the Object Explorer in VS. But to find tool windows, you should drop down the View menu from the top menu. Then navigate it until you find the one you want to view. Then you can dock it where you like.

A: 

Did you mean Object Browser?

View -> Other Windows -> Object Browser.

Or, View -> Other Windows -> Database Explorer (if you meant something like Object Explorer / Server Explorer).

The shortcuts are Ctrl + W, J and Ctrl + W, L, respectively.

I found the problem. I needed to change the settings to expert settings to find it. The object explorer is hidden in basic settings.

[EDIT] To change them you need to go to Tools > Settings.
