No indication of the SQL Server edition in the About window

I installed the SQL Server 2005 standard edition after uninstalling the Express edition.

When i look in the 'About' screen in the 'SQL Server Managment studio', i don't see indication that the SQL Server 2005 i currently work with is the Standard Edition. There are only categories and their numbers of versions.

How do i know that the Edition i work on ,now , is the Standard edition ?

Open up Management Studio and run "select @.@.version". This will tell you your SQL and OS details, including edition.

Thanks,
