Open your Exchange Admin tool, GOTO the help menu and click About Microsoft Exchange Server.

your answer is correct and I do get the version number however what I really meant to ask is how do I determine which type of install is present, enterprise or standard.

Check your Event Viewer's application log.

An Enterprise-edition Exchange Server logs the following event when the information store starts:

Event ID: 1217

The Standard version logs this event:

Event ID 1216
Source: MSExchangeIS Private
