How to check SQL Mamagement studio is installed or not (any version) programatically

How to check SQL Mamagement studio is installed or not (any version) programatically?
Secondly how to check if it is installed in other driver of a system(other than C drive) programatically.

Thanks visakh16,
Actually i do not want to read/write registry from SQL Server like  you replied 'Accessing The Registry From SQL Server' link
and i dont want to check manually in registry.even i am aware of all registry path.. programmatically (by C# or VB.NET) i want to get that yes SSMS is installed of not even if it is installed in other drive(other than C Drive).. Beacause if it is installed
on the system , i want to launch that. i can launch, login for specific user/database, but i want to know, is it installed or not any version of SSMS befoe launch.This is my question... please review it..Thanks in advance..
Actually I tried this way..
 Dim registryView As RegistryView = If(Environment.Is64BitOperatingSystem, registryView.Registry64, registryView.Registry32)
        Using hklm As RegistryKey = RegistryKey.OpenBaseKey(RegistryHive.LocalMachine, registryView)
            'Dim instanceKey As RegistryKey = hklm.OpenSubKey("SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Microsoft SQL Server\Instance Names\SQL", False)
            If instanceKey IsNot Nothing Then Return True
            Return False
                  '    For Each instanceName In instanceKey .GetValueNames()
            '    Next
            'End If
        End Using
Here i am checking for instances but i want to check only SQL Management Studio is installed or not..Thanks again

  • How to check SQL Tuning Advisor task is exist or not

    How to check SQL Tuning Advisor task is exist or not using DBMS_SQLTUNE,
    I want to remove SQL Tuning Advisor task only if it is exist using DBMS_SQLTUNE.DROP_TUNING_TASK function

    Two approaches.
    1. Look up in DBA/USER_ADVISOR_TASKS, if it exists, drop it.
    2. Drop it, ignore the exception
    3. Drop it, catch the exception (specific exception if you want to rightly avoid such constructs as when others then null) obviously within an inner block is you want to catch and then move on to do other work.
    SQL> declare
      2   e_no_such_task exception;
      3   pragma exception_init(e_no_such_task,-13605);
      4   procedure forgetaboutit
      5   as
      6   begin
      7      null;
      8   end;
      9  begin

  • How to upgrade mac os x 10.5.3 to any version?

    How to upgrade mac os x 10.5.3 to any version???

    If your Mac is running Leopard (10.5.x) then in order to upgrade further, you need to call Apple and purchase an upgrade to Snow Leopard (10.6.x).  I have not verified this myself, but I have been told that you can only purchase this by calling Apple, and it will cost about $20 USD. 
    Once you have Snow Leopard, you will need to verify if you really want to upgrade further.  By going to any newer OS, you will lose the ability to run any older PowerPC based software, as the newer releases of Mac OS do not include ROSETTA, which is needed to continue to run those applications.  Also, if your hardware has Leopard, it may not support any of the newer Mac OS releases, so you would want to verify that as well.
    After you have installed Snow Leopard, and then updated it to the latest (10.6.8) you can use the Mac App Store to purchase newer OS releases.  For right now, you can Buy Mountain Lion directly in the store.  If your hardware can't support Mountain Lion, but you still want ot upgrade to Lion, you will need to place another call to Apple to purchase an upgrade code to Lion. With that upgrade code, you can redeem it in the App Store to download the Lion installer.

    Regards,
    Rashmik

    Gowtham,
    Well the following hint is provided by oracle warehouse builder help.........
    The time-out setting for the workflow engine determines how long the File Exist activity waits for a file. If the file does not arrive before the time-out setting expires, the File Exists activity terminates with errors.
    well someone with deep workflow knowledge can answer this one...
    If you get the answer please share with us.....

  • Doubts: how to check this patch which were installed in EPM HFM...

    Dear Expert
    I'm new to Configuration Management Service for EPM HFM.
    And my doubt is how to find out which patch is installed on EPM HFM?
    How can I find it?
    thank you

    In EPM System Release 11.x, you can use the lsinventory command to OPatch to find the release and patches that are installed in an Oracle Home. For example, enter the following command on one line:
    Windows:
    opatch.bat lsinventory -oh <EPM_ORACLE_HOME> -jdk <MIDDLEWARE_HOME>/jdk160_29
    You can also check the Patch levels by;

  • How to find out whether ipv6 is installed or not

    Hello.
    I need to determine (in Java 1.5) whether ipv6 is installed on a system (Windows) or not. Any ideas how could I do that? Is it possible at all?
    Thanks in advance.

    Yes, right.
    I have a client/server application and there is a "properties" files where user can specify many options including connection related. And there is an editor that allows to change that "properties" file thru GUI (and there may be no connection with the server at this point). Currently, speaking of connection related options, user is represented with 2 options (ipv4 and ipv6) from which he/she can choose no matter whether ipv6 is installed or not. I need to disable (or remove) ipv6 option if there is no ipv6 installed on a system.
    Using server-socket-approch will, probably, do, but may be there is some other way to do this?
    And thanks a lot for your answer.

  • How to check whether Output ES is working or not.

    I am able to see Output ES in the services list of the admin console of my server. Please let me know how to check whether this is working or not.
    Regards,
    Shabeer

    LiveCycle ES2 (and LiveCycle ES) ship with three undersold and unadvertised web applications that are VERY useful. Each is referred to as an Installation Verification Sample (or IVS) but they are great testing tools you can use during development and QA. There is
    1) Assembler IVS,
    2) Forms IVS, and
    3) Output IVS
    Output IVS looks like this...
    The pattern for deploying and using all three IVSs is very similar as what I am about to describe for Output IVS. The following directions apply to the JBoss turnkey on Windows.
    1) go to C:\Adobe\Adobe LiveCycle ES2\deploy and locate adobe-output-ivs-jboss.ear
    2) copy adobe-output-ivs-jboss.ear to C:\Adobe\Adobe LiveCycle ES2\jboss\server\lc_turnkey\deploy
    3) if necessary, start LiveCycle
    4) open a browser and go to http://localhost:8080/OutputIVS/
    5) click Check/Change your preferences
    6) add Admin Credentials
    7) click Save
    8) click Test your form designs
    9) Select an .xdp from Form designs
    10) Click Use EJB (or Use Web Service if you feel so inclined) to invoke LiveCycle Output ES2
