Hi Martin,

Could you rephrase your question? I'm not sure I understand it.
 
There is no way to simply look at the key and determine which version of
Vista that it applies to. The product key sticker is attached to the package
with the Vista install disk.

The only way to determine this would be to install Vista, enter the product
key for the version that you purchased and attempt to activate.

There is a COA (Certificate Of Authenticity) sticker that is also attached
to the package.
