Detect an SQL instance

[NewsArchive]

Friedrich,

Is there a script to enable the detection of an MS SQL Instance?
Determining whether a particular version is installed is not
sufficient. I need to detect my if instance is installed.

TIA

You can "enumerate" the server instances registry items to find the
information you need. The "Get Registry SubKey..." script function can
handle this.

Does this help?
