Maintenance plans not installed

SQL 2005 workstation components, configuration tools, analysis services,
performance tools & management studio installed.  Can't find maintenance
plans.  Have installed full integration services.  What specifically needs to
be installed in 2005 to get to maintenance plans?

You have to create the maintenance plans. There are NO maintenance plans
until you create some.

Right click in the Maintenance Plan window, and select [Maintenance Plan
Wizard]. It will 'walk' you through the process.

For more information about Maintenance Plans, see "Maintenance Plans" and
"Maintenance Plan Wizard" in Books on Line.

I don't have a maintenance plan window - that's the problem!  Sorry if I
didn't communicate that clearly.

So when you click on [Management] in the Server Explorer pane, [Maintenance
Plan] is NOT listed in the right pane?

Correct.  Management displays, but maintenance plan does not show up in the
right pane.

SQL2005 RTM required you to install SSIS  and the Management Tools in order
to use the new SSIS maintenance plans (you can still use xp_sqlmaint
manually however). With SQL2005 SP1 this is no longer the case as long as
you have the managment tools installed. See
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/916940 and click on Maintenance plans

SP1 is installed according to update history and messages in event log "SP1
for SQL Server Tools & Workstations Components installed successfully".  Same
type of message for the SQL Server integration services sp1.

Very odd. I've never seen that or heard of it as an issue. The only thing I
can suggest is removing the management tools, reinstalling them and
reapplying SP1. If that doesn't wotk then you should open a case with PSS.

By chance, you don't happen to have the Express version of SQL Server
Management Studio installed?
