Hi All,

One question regarding to licensing. We purchased Processor Licensing Model for our server.

I want to install SQL on our staff PC to connect the server and do some query, which edition I should install?
Enterprise, standard or express?

Can I use the same Enterprise CD to install on staff PC?

Thanks

you don't need to install the Server on the staff PC. You only need to install the Client Tools like SQL Server Management Studio. the Client Tools are available in the installation CD

What is the version of the Operating System of the staff PC ? Unless it is a Server O/S, you will not be able to install Enterprise Edition on it.
