Determine Whether RC0 or RTM

  • Dudes!

    i have an installer of SQL Server 2008 that i downloaded from some site. How can i determine without installing whether its RC0 or RTM or whatever. There is no info about this on the source of downloading!

    Thanks in advance!

  • What about the Dudettes?

    Anyway, short of installing it & checking the version, I'm not sure what you could do.

  • If you right click on the installer, can you see the version?

    My 2008 RTM setup.exe has this version = 2007.100.1600.22

    As far as I know, RTM all come in ISO images

    I know RC0 came as .EXE even (I installed quite a few from folders instead of ISO images)

    Build 1442 is RC0

    Build 1600 is RTM
