title: Can I use SQL Server replication components using Developer version?
body: <p>Can I use SQL Server replication components using the free Developer SQL Server version?</p>
  
  <p>When I choose options in SSMS Replication | Configure Distribution, I get message:</p>
  
  <h2>Configure Distribution Wizard</h2>
  
  <p>Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio is unable to access replication components because replication is not installed on this instance of SQL Server. For information about installing replication, see the topic Installing Replication in SQL Server Books Online.</p>
  
  <hr>
  
  <p>ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:</p>
  
  <p>Replication components are not installed on this server. Run SQL Server Setup again and select the option to install replication. (Microsoft SQL Server, Error: 21028)</p>
  
  <p>OK</p>
  
  <p>I will try to re-review install steps.</p>
  
  <p>There does not seem to be any option I can find in the "SQL Server Installation Center" options for Replication.</p>
