What is the difference between the Xpert and Base edition? What features are enabled for different editions/versions of Toad for DB2?
How can you tell what edition a license enables?
The main difference between Base edition and Xpert edition is the optimize SQL feature. If you purchase an Xpert edition license you will also enable the option to optimize SQL and access to our product SQL Optimizer for DB2.

The license key determines the edition and will enable functionality accordingly. In many cases, if functionality is disabled within Toad, you may not have an appropriate license to use it. If you'd like to verify, you can check in the Toad Help file, look up the feature that you're attempting to use. If the feature is limited by the license or edition, it should note accordingly (i.e. "This feature is available only in Toad Xpert Editions that include SQL Optimizer for IBM DB2 LUW or SQL Optimizer for IBM DB2 z/OS").
To review which key is currently registered, go to Help | About or Help | Licensing. It will note the current license and a general view of what edition the license is.
