i want the registry value SQL Server 2005 Management Studio (because our application is dependent;) before installing our application i am checking whether SQL Server 2005 Management Studio is present or not and i have cross checked that for SQL Server Management Studio with Express Edition it is having different registry value and for SQL Server Management Studio Developer Edition it is having different registry value; All i want is a common registry for SQL Server 2005 Management Studio so that i can check it before installation of my product.

Go to Start > Programs > Microsoft SQL Server > Service Manager. Locate the running MS SQL Server instance name (circled below in red). This is what you'll need to enter in the record.
Registry keys contain configuration data for the SQL Server services and applications. Unrestricted access or access unnecessary for operation can lead to a compromise of the application or disclosure of information that may lead to a successful attack or compromise of data.
From a Command Prompt, type regedit.exe, and press [ENTER]. Navigate to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE >> SOFTWARE >> Microsoft >> Microsoft SQL Server >> Instance Names. Each instance installed on the server possesses a key inside a folder under this registry entry.
