Hi,

My question is if we can try to "Create Enterprise Geodatabase" (authorization file needed)  with ArcGIS desktop trial?

Thank you.

Piterson - no, the "Create Enterprise Geodatabase" GP tool requires an ArcGIS for Server Enterprise *.ecp file to allow the GP tool to execute properly.  With an Advanced ArcGIS for Desktop license, you can create a Desktop multiuser geodatabase (stored in SQL Server Express) using the Catalog/ArcCatalog application.
