Verifying the SQL Server Data Tools (SSDT) or SQL Server Integration Services Projects (SSIS Projects) Release

One method in how to verify your current SSDT release is through the Control Panel ➡ Programs ➡ Programs and Features. Programs that are installed on your server are tracked and/or listed under the Programs and Features, which can be accessed through Control Panel.
  1. From the Windows Start Menu, locate the Windows System folder and then Click to expand the sub-menu.
  2. Click on the Control Panel (See Figure-04).
  3. Click on Program and then Click on Programs and Features.
  4. When the Program and Features Window appears, scroll down and locate the program Microsoft SQL Data Tools - Visual Studio 2017 (See Figure-05).
  5. Using the Compatibility Chart for SSDT, look up the build number to identify the release of SSDT.
Info
Note: although Visual Studio provides version information, the information associated with SSDT can't help identify the accurate build number and/or release installed (See Figure-06).
