For Database Administrators – Using SQL Server Management Studio

1. Log into the Vista (or otherwise named database).
2. Run the following query against the database.

   [sql]SELECT TOP 1 * FROM DBVERSION ORDER BY VersNum DESC[/sql]

   VersNum gives the database version. For example, if VersNum has value 260, then the database has been updated to version 2.60.
