    Just check the label on the box. Most SQL Servers have about 2000 calories.

    Client Access License.
    The maximum number of users that are allowed access a server.
    The number of CALs is written on the box when you buy SQL, but if you have lost the box, or got it installed OEM, or bought a license agreement with Microsoft for CALs, I'm not sure how to find out how many you have.

    One of my customers has just asked me ...

    Uhn. I'll just ring one of our SQL MCPs
