Question:

We are rolling out SQL Server 2008 R2 and I'm wondering if there is a way to install just the SQL Server 2008 R2 Management Studio without having access to full SQL Server 2008 R2 Standard Edition install?

Is there seperate media for just the Mangement Studio???

Not on disk, but you can download sqlexpress with advanced tools and only instal ssms.

You could write an installation script for this, assuming the client has network access to a copy of the media something like (below) would install only management studio;

\\yourserver\share\folderwithmedia\setup.exe /Action="Install" /IACCEPTSQLSERVERLICENSETERMS /ERRORREPORTING=0 /FEATURES=SSMS /INDICATEPROGRESS /SQMREPORTING=0 /Q
