I want to use SQL Profiler to trace the queries executed agains my database, track performance, etc. However it seems that the SQL Profiler is only available in the Enterprise edition of SQL Server 2005. Is this the case indeed, and can I do something about it?

You don’t need any SQL license to run the client tools (Management Studio, Profiler, etc). If your organization has a copy of the installation media for Developer, Standard, or Enterprise, you can install the client tools on your local machine under the same license.
If you’re working solo, I would recommend purchasing SQL Developer edition, it’s only $50.
