Hi Experts,

We have SQL Server 2005 Standard edition in a box. We need to update (install) that box with SQL Server Developer editions. Please let me know what are the ways to do it.

Thanks in advance,

Hariarul

Thanks. What should I do if I need to have only the developer edition on a machine which already has standard edition.

Is there a way to upgrade ? or Uninstall the standard edition & re install the developer edition ?

i don't think you can upgrade a standard to developer.

just backup your db's, uninstall standard and install developer.
