Hello I installed MS SQl 2005 the eval version and it has expired. I have bought a copy now and i need to put the product keys in without having to reinstall the program. Is there anyway i can do this with having to reinstall SQl again..
Any help would be great

You will need to uninstall the Eval edition and install your licensed retail version.

Check out this article from Microsoft on how to keep your system tables intact as you "migrate".
