RE: Upgrade from E2k Standard Eval to Licensed version
That is correct. The eval version is Enterprise only. The only upgrade path is to the enterprise version. I am not familiar with a way around this. It certainly would not be supported.

Re: Upgrade from E2k Standard Eval to Licensed version
Yes! My copy expired and would not allow a licensed installation on top of the eval. Databases go offline and all stops. MS KB says you cannot install licensed copy to enable the existing eval databases. I know that I can't. If you or anyone has found a way around this, I'd love you hear from you. thanx.
