For more information, contact your primary support provider.

To determine which SQL Server service pack is currently running on your computer, execute the following statement from either ISQL or ISQL/w: SELECT @@version The following table illustrates the correspondence between the version string reported by @@VERSION for each of the SQL Server 6.5 service packs:

NOTE: Only apply the Post Service Pack 5 Update if the version of your existing service pack is between 6.50.415 and 6.50.479. If you have a version earlier than 6.50.415, you must first apply Service Pack 5a, and then apply the Post Service Pack 5 Update.
