Cause:
- Users need to quickly identify the SQL Server version and edition without running a query.
- This is often required for troubleshooting, compatibility checks, or upgrade planning.
Resolution:
Yes, there is a quick way to check the SQL Server version and edition using SQL Server Management Studio (SSMS) or SSMS Express. However, note that using a SQL query script (e.g., SELECT @@VERSION;) is the official method recommended by Microsoft to identify your current SQL Server version number and corresponding product or service pack level.
Steps:
- Open SSMS and connect to your SQL Server instance.
- In Object Explorer, right-click the server name in the left pane and select Properties.
- In the Server Properties window, click General in the left pane.
- Look for Product, Version, and Edition details.
