RE: SQL SERVER Edition
Hi

select @@version will return "(Intel X86)" as part of the string for 32 Bit.

There are still more 32bit installs than 64bit Itanium installs.

RE: SQL SERVER Edition
Hi

For SQL Server 2000, "Intel X86" implies 32bit version.

Re: SQL SERVER Edition
SQL Server 2000 64 Bit only runs on an Itanium.

SQL Server 2005 64 Bit only runs on an Itanium and there is a separate build
for X64/EM64T processors.

There have been a few discussions on this in these newsgroups. Have a Google
for them.
