    During installation I get...

    May I know the different use of:

    1. Clients tools connectivity.

    2. Clients tools Backward Compatibilty

    3. Clients toll SDK

    4. SQL Clients Connectivity SDK

    I only want to install sql native client which one I should choose

    If you press F1 at the set-up screen you get more information about these options.

    If you think logically for a bit, the answer - which Dev already gave you - is quite easy:

    * backward compatibility: it can't be that one as the SQL Native Client has nothing to do with backward compatibility. This option contains DTS, SQL-DMO and DSO.

    * two options with SDK in the title. SDK means software development kit. So it is for developing stuff. Does the native client develops stuff. No.

    So this leaves you with only one correct answer: client tools connectivity. It has the word client in it (as in SQL Native Client) and the word connectivity. And the SQL Native Client is used to connect clients and servers with each other.

    Furthermore: don't bump up your thread with "any help". It comes over as very impatient.

    Actually, then you should check MSDN (or the F1 page), or call Microsoft support.

    I can tell whatever I want on an online forum 😉
