Before installing my application, I want to check whether the system is having sql server 2005 sp1/ sp2

my application requires sql server 2005 sp2, or atleast sql server 2005 sp1
other wise i will install an exe("SQLEXPR_ADV.EXE"), which I have, to run my application successfully.
can you help to check whether the system is having sql server 2005 sp1 or sql server 2005 sp2.
my email id is "santuyours@gmail.com" dont forgot to mail me.

Separate topics with commas, or by pressing return. Use the delete or backspace key to edit or remove existing topics.

You can leave an optional "tip" with Mahalo's virtual currency, Mahalo Dollars. If you are asking a difficult question that might require some research, or if you'd like a wide variety of feedback, a higher tip often leads to more answers to your question.

If what is left to know is the SQL server version, there's a KB article on the microsoft support site that explains how to get the version installed, on SQL server 2005 the query for this is the following:
SELECT SERVERPROPERTY('productversion'), SERVERPROPERTY ('productlevel'), SERVERPROPERTY ('edition')
The following table lists the Sqlservr.exe version number:
Release Sqlservr.exe
RTM 2005.90.1399
SQL Server 2005 Service Pack 1 2005.90.2047
SQL Server 2005 Service Pack 2 2005.90.3042
SQL Server 2005 Service Pack 3 2005.90.4035

Just try running a simple command line query. The script below will display all the databases on your system. Just change the part that says "-Myservername" to the name of your computer (or IP address). OSQL is the command line interface to SQL Server. If you get an error like: 'osql' is not recognized... then you know you do not have SQL installed.

OSQL -E -Myservername -Q"SELECT name FROM sysdatabases"

my appliation requirement at least sql server 2005 sp1, if it has sql server 2005 with sp2, it is more enough, if it has only sql server 2005, then we need to install sp1. if system doesn't have sql server 2005 at all, then we are installing sql express demo version i.e "SQLEXPR_ADV.EXE" (which is also suitable for our application). But I wants to check whether sql server databse is installed, if is not sql server 2005, or sql server 2005 sp1, or sql server 2005 sp2, I need to have "SQLEXPR_ADV.EXE". the minimal requirement is sql server 2005 with sp1.
