I have a server originally setup with SQL Server 2008 Standard edition. All servers are currently running SQL Server 2008.
Software was installed which installed SQL Server 2008 R2 express edition on this server.
Now I can not maintain my maintenance plans using SQL SERVER 2008 Management Studios.
I understand the concept to common components and that R2 version is higher and the common components
now run as R2.
What I have read, to get rid of the R2 Express Edition, I have to remove both versions of SQL Server and then reinstall
SQL Server 2008 Standard edition.
Is this my only solution, has anyone else been able to get rid of the Express version without uninstall both versions.
