Data-driven subscriptions - SQLRS Ent vs Std

I want to use data-driven subscriptions but cannot create one - the "New
data-driven subscription" button does not appear in Report manager. I
believe this may be because I'm running SQLRS Standard - can someone confirm
this please?
If true, is there an easy way to upgrade to SQLRS Enterprise or do I have to
uninstall Std and do a fresh install of Enterprise? Is there a way to save
and restore all my subscriptions?
thanks
PeterThe data Driven Subscriptions are only part of the enterprise version. I
don't think you have to uninstall to put in the entprise license. It won't
affect your subscriptions.
