  Hi folks,

  We have sql server 90 days evalution version on one of our server. It is sql server 2005. Now we want to keep the software for around one more year. I have the license key needed for that....Can any one of you tell me how to do that?

  Thanks in advance.

  call microsoft.

  That was good 🙂

  I have never heard of 90 days eval version of SQL.

  Anyways, You can contact Microsoft and purchase licence of Enterprise/Standard Edition.

  RBAR is pronounced "ree-bar" and is a "Modenism" for Row-By-Agonizing-Row.
  First step towards the paradigm shift of writing Set Based code:
  ________Stop thinking about what you want to do to a ROW... think, instead, of what you want to do to a COLUMN.

  Change is inevitable... Change for the better is not.
