@@version, add database to a named instance?

Hi,
I have a sql 2000 personal editon(default server) and developer edition
(named) installed on a machine (windowsXP).
1) if I do 'select @.@.version' in query, I always get 'personal edition'
version information back. How can I get the version nformation of developer
edition?
2)How do I use Enterprise Manager to create a database with developer editon
server instance?
THANKS!
It tells you the version of the server you are connecting to. If you want
the version of developer edition you need to connect to it first.

Go to the SQL Server log of the SQL Server Developer edition installation
(C:\program files\Microsoft SQL Server\Logs\ folder).
In the error log the name of the SQL Server installation will be shown. You
could use that information to either register to Enterprise manager or
connect to Query Analyzer. After that you could execute SELECT @.@.Version.
Thanks
