Greetings All, does anyone know if there are licencing considerations
involved if I just want to install MSSQL clients and tools? I need to
connect to a MSSQL database server out on the network and I want to
used Enterprise Manager, however my boss says that you may need to pay
for licensing? Can anyone shed any light on this?

Regards, TFD.

I have a feeling that your boss is right. But it may also depend on
whether you have a Per Seat or Per Client license.

In any case, I recommend contacting your local Microsoft representative
for sorting out licensing issues.
