I have developed a database using SQL Server 2005 Express for 2005 Enterprise. My client now realises they don't have a licence for 2005 and require a copy of the database that will work on SQL Server 2000. I can find plenty of information about migrating from 2000 to 2005 but not the other way round. Is this possible and, if so, I would really appreciate any pointers on how to do it.

Hi,
I'm looking into how i can revert back to running my db on sql server 2000, it's currently running on 2005 and having problems. Any help/pointers would be much appreciated
Hello people,
I'm experiencing problem here that we need to downgrade our sql 2005 back to version 7.0.
Apparently, all the mdf files from 2005 are recognized as "corrupted" by the 7.0 server.
All my dbs are created within 2005 and i'd like to move these to the older 7.0 server.
I wonder whether there are any procedure to convert 2005 mdf files so
that is is compatible with sql server 7.0? or what is the most common
way of solving this?
Any pointer would be appreciated. thx!
Hi
I have the following problem :
I have licensed a german version of sbs 2003 premium. With the upgrade to sbs 2003 r2, I will buy the rights to use the sql 2005 workgroup edition. But the german sbs 2003 r2 is not available by now.
I could go in production with the sql 2005 trial, this is an entreprise edition.
My question is : can I downgrade the sql server 2005 from this trial edition (entreprise) to the workgroup edition ? Is it possible ? easy ? any recommendations ?
Many thanks !

Hi all--I'm researching the cleanest downgrade path from a trial edition of SQL Server 2005 Enterprise to a licensed Standard Edition copy. It looks like downgrading will entail uninstalling the old version and installing the new version, but I'd like to save the original setup as much as possible. Detaching the old databases will preserve the non-system databases; what method would work best for restoring the system databases?
Thanks!

I am working on a project that was written in Visual Studio 2003 using asp.net and C#. The project accesses a SQL Server 2000 database. I need to test the application. What I want to do is to copy the database over to a test server. The problem is that the test server only has SQL Server 2005 on it. Would it be a problem if I backed up the database using SQL Server 2000 and then recreated it on the server as a SQL server 2005 project? Would my source code accept the new database even though it would now be in sql server 2005?
Hi all
I have a problem with the migration of databases from sql 2000 to sql 2005.
When i try to create the table or when i try to import the database, the below message is prompt:
Mens. 2782, Nivel 16, Estado 1, Línea 1
La instrucción DDL no está permitida.
Any ideas about this problem?
Thanks in advance

Is it possible to setup replication for a particular database from an SQL2005 database server to a SQL2000 database server.
I've searched a few forums and the MS knowledge base but can't find a specific answer.
Hopefully someone can point this novice in the right direction.

i have sql 2005 installed on my personal machine, but our server has sql 2000 on it. the structure of my database was made on the server, but i'm not sure how to update the server copy from my local copy. when i try to export my data from my local machine to the server (or import from my local machine to the server), i get pre-execute errors.
roughly every other week, i'll need to be able to update the server version from my local version, so i'm trying to find the most efficient method. what is the best way to update a 2000 database from a 2005 database? it doesn't matter if i append or overwrite, but i do use identity fields. the error i get when trying to use the import/export wizard is:
- Pre-execute (Error)

I have a SQL 2000 database on one server that I'm trying to transfer to a new server. The new server has Small Business Server R2 Premium Edition, which includes SQL 2005.
I tried to transfer the database in the normal way that I'd create a copy database, which was: -1. Backup the source database2. Create a new database (empty) in the new server3. Restore to this database from the backup taken in #1.
Of course on previous occasions I wasn't changing version, but I expected that this would either fail immediately (message "incorrect version" or some such), or else work.
At first this appeared to transfer OK. It took about 20 minutes to create the backup (just over 5GB), and about the same time to restore it. The restore terminated with a message "Database has been restored successfully"). However, the database's icon in Management Studio's Object explorer showed a little up arrow, and alongside the database name "(restoring ....)". Clicking on the database icon did not expand it. 3 hours later it still was like this. Examining the server showed zero activity.
I expect that it's failed, and I should delete the new "(restoring...)" database and start again. How should I create this SQL 2005 database?

Is there a way to restore a 2000 database to 2005?
will the restore process convert automatically to 2005?
My customer has SQL Server 2005. I have SQL Server 2000 on my laptop (on XP Pro). I believe I have an empty database the same as theirs, but I need to restore their data. They sent me a normal SQL Backup, but my laptop threw a fit and cannot work with it.
They are now trying to export the database to Microsoft Access and send me that, but I won't get that until next week now. However is there a better and easier solution for those of us with insufficient experience of this, please?
Many thanks,
Caspar

Dear All..
I have a few databases running a sql2000 and the time as come to move them onto sql2005. Which would be the best route to take.
If I can think back to older version it was just a simply job of doing a backup in it's current version then restore in the new version? and upgrade was taken while restoring.. I could be wrong but any help !!
Thanks

Our product currently works with Cystal Reports but we decided to enhance it so it works with another reporting platform (MS Reporting Services). We are in the beginning stages of developement and trying to decide which version of RS (2000 or 2005?) to build the reports and integrate our web UI with. Most of our clients are using SQL Server 2000 for their database platform and we don't anticpate them upgrading to 2005 in the near future.

I have a db in SQL server 2000 developer edition. I am using Visual Studio 2005 standard, and also VWD Express. I would like to just access the database that is in SQL server 2000 so I can get on with developing the site, but VS2005 refuses to recognize the instance. It recognizes 2005 instances right away.The services are all running, the network protocols are enabled, uid's/pw all of that is correct. I am getting the "named pipes" error (the named pipes protocol is enabled).Any suggestions? I'd really rather just work with the db as-is in SQL 2000. But I can't get it to connect. I can connect to it if I export it to SQL 2005, (on the same development machine) but can't get the stored procs over to the 2005 db. So my web app is not finding the stored procs and won't run.Do I need to uninstall SQL 2005 from this box if I want to use SQL 2000?Thanks,--Donnie
