Has anyone upgraded to this service patch? I downloaded the patch from the Microsoft web site and was going to apply it to a test server. I only have to apply it for the database engine, no replication or OLAP services. In the instructions, on page 14 it refers to a setup.bat and then a \X86\setup\setupsql.exe file to upgrade the server.

I was a little confused about which one should be executed, although I just executed each of them on my local machine and they both look like the same interface. Any ideas?

Thanks for your help.

I have applied it to several servers. Yes setup.bat and setupsql.exe are the same. If you look at setup.bat (just right click on it in and go to Edit to see), you'll see that it's just running setupsql.exe.
