SQL Server Client Tools: How can you tell what SQL edition the client tools are from?
Go to Management Studio's Help &gt; About... menu. For example, I am running the latest build of SQL Server 2016 (CTP 2.1), and this is what my Help &gt; About shows:


  


If I click Copy Info, I get this in my clipboard:

Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio          13.0.300.44
Microsoft Analysis Services Client Tools        13.0.300.44
Microsoft Data Access Components (MDAC)         10.0.10166.0
Microsoft MSXML                                 3.0 6.0 
Microsoft Internet Explorer                     9.11.10166.0
Microsoft .NET Framework                        4.0.30319.42000
Operating System                                6.3.10166


There are no longer any "editions" of client tools, starting with SQL Server 2012 Service Pack 1. Before that, there were only two editions: licensed and Management Studio Express. Help &gt; About would yield that information as well, and the title bar would say so too.
