AutoCAD with updates (Update/SP, Bonus Pack).

To identify AutoCADu 2009 with installed updates (Update 1, 2 or 3, Service Pack) and extension packs like the "Subscription Bonus Packs" you can use the dialog "About AutoCAD".

Run the command ABOUT (Help > About AutoCAD), click the "Product information" button and in the field "Product update" (SP) you can see e.g.:

"AutoCAD 2009 - English" (the original version)
"AutoCAD 2009 - English Version 2" (Update 1 - SP1 applied)
"AutoCAD 2009 - English Version 2.1" (Update 1 applied, Bonus Pack 1 installed)
"AutoCAD 2009 - English Version 3" (Update 2 - SP2 applied)
"AutoCAD 2009 - English Version 3.1" (Update 2 applied, Bonus Pack 2 installed)
"AutoCAD 2009 - English Version 4" (Update 3 - SP3 applied)

You can also use the _VERNUM system variable - the "Update 1" level will show "C.111.0", the "Update 1" plus Bonus Pack will return _VERNUM=C.112.0, the "Update 2" reports _VERNUM=C.608.0, with the "Bonus Pack 2" then _VERNUM=C.662.0 and with the "Update 3" it reports _VERNUM=C.711.0.
