  Hi All,

  I have installed Sql 2008 Workgroup Edition Evaluation Edition on my Server. Now my sql got expired and I am not able to access Sql Server Management Studio. I have already purchase the same software (Microsoft Volume Licensing Software). I am trying to upgrade the same through Edition Upgrade. Upgraded successfully but when again we try to use Sql Server management Studio, Same error found "Evaluation Period Expired....."

  I am try change the registry also through 1 to 3 but not success.

  Can any one help me in this regards,

  Thanks

  Nirbhay

  I'd try uninstalling and then reinstalling.
