I migrated a couple of legacy SQL Server 2000 databases to SQL Server 2012 to see what was involved. Now the trial period has expired. SSMS no longer works -- error message that the trial has expired. I've gotten the green light to acquire licenses. Does the client software have to be reinstalled from a new DVD? Or will there be an option to enter a license key? How about the engine on the server? Will we have to uninstall and reinstall the server-side components?
