My customer wants to install the client tools on his local box to
support the SQL Server Standard 2005 license he has on his server.

>From what I understand since he has the server license he can install

the tools on any supporting box he needs to. I would link to a
Microsoft site that states this. I have tried:

http://www.microsoft.com/sql/howtobuy

but it does not 'really' state this. Anyone have any ideas?

Thanks,
Jim
