Standard vs. Professional (2003 and 2007)

[mopsta]

I want to get a handle on who has which version installed on my network.
I found the kb articles indicating the product numbers, but there doesn't
seem to be a way to distinguish standard versus professional.

Is there a way to tell which version someone has (standard or professional)
AND which product 2003/2007/sp1/sp2/sp3?

Thanks,
Theo

Thanks Mike.
I've seen that in the Help menu before.

I was hoping there was a way I could do it by scanning everyone's machines
using sms 2003. I'm thinking there might be thousands of copies installed,
but not that many in use. And, if they are in use, I want to make sure the
correct copy is installed. I've heard of people using professional, but they
have no server to connect it with; so, i'm thinking all they need is standard.

Hi Theo,

With those quantities, I think you need some vba solution. Try posting on
the microsoft.public.project.developer newsgroup (forum). Please see FAQ
