Batch file and use of isql command

Hi,
I'm trying to figure out how to be able to run a batch
file, go to the database, find the current application
version of our product and based on that result it
returns, run a specific script. We have a table that
holds all of the builds/releases of the application that
have been applied against the database. Based on the
information there (the max build/release number), I want
it to execute a specific SQL script that will upgrade them
to the next build/release.
For example, we have a table called DBVersion with one
column in it (AppsVersion). In this table, it has rows
that are as follows:
8.0.100.0
8.0.101.0
8.0.102.0
We have two upgrade paths that we will support. In the
example above, we can upgrade a customer who are in
8.0.100.0 or 8.0.102.0 to the new release number
8.0.103.0. We have two upgrade scripts...one that holds
all db changes from 8.0.100.0 to 8.0.103.0 and one that
holds all db changes from 8.0.102.0 to 8.0.103.0. I want
to create a batch file that finds the version they are on
and run a specific script to upgrade them to the new
release.
Thank you in advance,
DeeHi, this line of SQL maybe helps you
SELECT SERVERPROPERTY('productversion'), SERVERPROPERTY ('productlevel'),
SERVERPROPERTY ('edition')

Thank you for your response. Actually, the version that I
was implying was our own product's application version and
not SQL Server's.
Thanks again,
Dee
