Is there a way I can tell if I have the latest version of Visual Studio Database Edition? When I select Help in my VS 2008, I see the following entry for Database Edition:

Microsoft Visual Studio Team System 2008 Database Edition 91901-270-3346032-60220 Microsoft Visual Studio Team System 2008 Database Edition

Just so you know

Make sure to grab Microsoft Visual Studio Team System 2008 Database Edition GDR R2 from here http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=bb3ad767-5f69-4db9-b1c9-8f55759846ed&displaylang=en and install that on top of your Visual Studio Team System 2008 Database Edition...it adds support to the new stuff in SQL Server 2008

Exactly what I was looking for - thank you.

If you mean "the latest release for my version", I have no idea, except going to the website to check. If you mean "latest version", then go to the website to check.

Hey,

Latest version would be after all updates/service packs are applied; so the version you have needs the GDR R2 add on installed (as mentioned by @SQLMenace) and then any necessary service packs too.

That would get you the latest.
