Sharepoint 2007 SP 2 upgrade to Web/App ONLY
I have a Sharepoint implementation with a Database that has already been upgraded to SP2 and April 2010 rollups and a Web/App that has NOT....
My question is, if I run the SP2 and April 2010 updates on the Web/App server will the update be smart enough to NOT upgrade the Database (its already upgraded) when I run the Configuration Wizard??

I believe so. A SharePoint upgrade won't affect SQL itself (though it will update the SQL tables as required).

Sorry just to clarify....so you are saying that the upgrade will recognize that my database tables are already upgraded and not do any thing.... right?

It won't re-upgrade, no worries here.
If you find errors it will probably be that SharePoint won't upgrade because the database versions (SP2+CU) are (already) different from the bin's versions (pre SP2).
Good luck.
