I have an SQL Server 2000 DB that I created on one PC that I would like to move to a PC running SQL Server 2005 Express, is this possible? Will the SQL Server 2000 DB run under SQLS Server 2005 EXPRESS?
Thank you for any thoughts,
Hi Guys, I have had SQL Server Express and Sql Server Management Studio Express installed on my machine for some time and recently tried to install a trial of SQL Server 2005 as well. (Yes, I'm migrating from Visual Studio Express to Visual Studio Professional, just as in tended!) Everything went fine except that nothing seemed to be installed. I searched in all the obvious places - both on the Start/Programs menu and on the hard-drive: nothing. A check under Add/Remove Programs showed that Sql Server 2005 Express was installed, but called SQL Server 2005. So after a number of retries in which the install program kept saying that there was nothing to install, I selected every option under Advanced in the intall process. This resulted in stuff being installed and I now have SQL Server 2005 running on my machine, but no SQL Server Manager icon. My questions are:
Where can I find the SQL Server Manager executeable? Has anyone installed SQL Server Express, SQL Server Mangement Studio Express, SQL Server 2005 and SQL Server Management Studio on a single machine successfully? If so, what order did you install them in? (I'm planning on uninstalling everything SXQL Server related and starting again.) Thanks very much for your help. Regards Gary
As I said in the subject I've a problem trying to restore a backup of a previous db created in sql 2000 server

Not sure if this was posted but having a hard time finding an answer. I'm currently running sql server 2000 enterprise edition on my machine and was wondering what would happen if i installed 2005 express edition and vice versa? I've found many blogs and post about compatibility issues with the 2005 Express Beta version but couldn't find any news with full version. It would be much appreciated if someone can help me out with this problem. Thanks!
I have a dedicated server running SQL Server 2000 on Windows 2003. Can I install SQL Server 2005 express so that I can run sites developed with VWD Express. I still have the sites that need to use the sql 2000 server. Thanks

I'm creating an app and have SQL Server 2005 Express installed. Most of the hosts now offering SQL Server 2005 are a bit pricey compared to those only offering 2000. Will I have any difficulty uploading my site and running the db on SQL 2000? Thanks in advance.
I have installed Server 2005 Express on a pc running Windows Server 2000 sp4 which I want to use as the server for a network of pcs. However, I am unable to login to SQL Express on this machine from Sql Server Management Studio Express. I am in mixed mode and trying to connect with Server Authentication. I get various error messages none of which seem to point to the problem.
Networked to this pc are several other machines running Xp Professional/Home sp2 and if I install SQL Express on one of these I can log in to SQL Express on that machine without any problem. I can also connect to it via the network from the Win Server 2k machine.
Does anyone know of any issues when installing Server 2005 Express on a pc running Windows Server 2000 sp4.
Should be a quick question:I've got a client with a Sql Server 2000 database. He wants to hook it up to a server that is only running Sql Server Express 2005. Can this work? Thanks!
I have just acquired my first root server (Microsoft Windows Server 2003) to run a lightly used ASP application. I installed SQL Server Express 2005 on the server and the application works just fine. The problem is that I cannot access the SQL database on the server from my local computer that is running SQL Server 2000 Developer.
Please note the following: 1) I can access the server database (2005 Express) from a computer that is running SQL 2005 developer. 2) I can access other servers that are running non-EXPRESS versions of SQL 2005 from my computer (which is running SQL 2000)
Thus my question is: Is there some kind of limitation or required setting in SQL Server Express to allow remote connections from SQL 2000?
Remember - I CAN access the database remotely using SQL 2005, just not SQL 2000.
I am using SQL Query Analyzer to try to access the database from my local computer using the same connection parameters that work on my SQL 2005 computer in Management Studio.
I'm trying to export a SQL Server 2005 Express database to SQL Server 2000 sp4, but have so far been unsuccessful. SQL 2005 Express doesn't have an Export Data function and backup/restore doesn't work because of the different versions.
I'm an engineer in a manufacturing environment. We have a centralized MS SQL Server 2000 running at each location of my company. I'm developing applications that will run on "Test stand" PCs, where product is tested. Current software works solely with csv files for data output and works independently of the network. To limit the reliance on the network, I'd like to setup small workgroups, or cells, of test stand PCs that communicate with a MS SQL Server Express 2005 that is replicated with the facility-side server databases running SQL Server 2000.
Will there be any compatibility issues replicating between these two? Obviously, the SQL Server 2000 will act as the publisher. Note that our IS department will likely not go for 2005 for awhile and I have no input to get them to move to this. It will be a little bit of a dogfight to get their support on the "cell" idea I'm considering. Our faciities in Juarez have frequent internal network issues, so to maintain production, it is very important to be able to continue testing product when the main network is down.
Currently on my development machine i have SQL Express 2005 running.
On the production server, they have SQL 2000. So I need to get one of my databases from this server to the other one. From my understanding you can't export from 2005 to 2000 because of the drastic change.
What is the easiest way for me to do this?
create the tables manually and export the data in CSV and import it that way?
whenever i modified the connection of my current database...I'll always got an error,when asking for "server name"..it says [DBNETLIB...etc]Named Pipes etc error..my current database was SQLEXPRESS and i want to change it as an SQL OLEDB,2000,2005.. but as i said il always got an error..sometimes it says "SQL server does not exit..ODBC" etc...when im entering the "server name"..so i could only used Access or SQLEXPRESS server database.. what should i do with the error?? thanks for helping again..
Hi, I"m trying to export a databse from my express 2005 to 2000 and I tried using managment studio and doesn't seem to work. Can anybody give me some tips or links that teach me how to do that? I googled around , so far, havne't found a good solution yet. Thanks
Hello, is it possible to have both sql server 2000 and sql server express 2005 installed at the same box?
I currently have sql2000 installed its used for an application. But I want to install visual studio 2005 and with this sql server express 2005 also is being installed ( if you want to) now I wonder if this is possible, that is is it possible to both run sql server 2000 and sql server express at the same time on the same box?
Recently I decided to start using DotNetNuke, which uses an SQL Server database. My webhoster offers SQL Server 2000, and I was able to install and run DNN successfully there. However, I wish to have a local copy of DNN on my PC with the same contents as is on the web. It means that I need either to convert SQL Server 2000 database to my local SQL Server 2005 Express database, or vice versa.
Although I programmed in (Visual) FoxPro for many years, I am new to SQL Server and I am overwhelmed by the vast number of new terms. Can anyone tell me in simple English, how to perform the above mentioned conversions? My webhoster allows me to backup the SQL Server 2000 database in an *.sql file, but how shall I convert this file into an SQL Server 2005 Express *.mdf file?
My question might be a little bit unusual, but is it possible to upgrade SQL 2005 Express (the free version of SQL) to SQL 2000 Server without any loss of functionality?
Where do I have to pay attention to when doing this?
I have a database backup from Server Express 2005 that I want to restore to SQL Server 2000. I keep getting an error message saying it was created a newer version and wont work. Is there a workaround to this.
I want to replicate data from sql server 2000 to a sql server express 2005 box.
I can dts data across..but I want to be able to set up push replication from the Sql Server 2000 box, but the option to push the data to the Sql Express server in the GUI does not come up only Sql Server 2000 boxes are listed. Initially I will be using Snapshot replication but would like to eventually move on to transactional rep if only I can get it to push the data across.
Does anyone know how to acheive this thanks for any help Sammy.
The Environment: I have an old Windows 2000 BackOffice server (Retail but with no media) that hosts a small database (<50mb) that is hosted on the local SQL Server 2000 installation. The network has 8 PCs that connect to the database via ODBC connections. I just purchased a new server running Windows Server 2003 Standard Edition (OEM).
What I€™m Trying to Accomplish: I want to decommission the old 2000 BackOffice server and move the database to the new 2003 Standard server. I€™m trying to do this on the cheap, so I really want to avoid spending thousands on a new SQL server license.
Things I€™m Considering: 1) Migrating the database from SQL 2000 Standard to SQL 2005 Express 2) Moving the database from SQL 2000 Standard to MS Access 3) Purchasing SQL Server 2005 licenses and upgrading 4) Purchasing SQL 2000 Server licenses
The options are pretty much listed in my order of preference. I€™d like to move from SQL 2000 Server to SQL 2005 Express, but I haven€™t really found a lot of material on the subject since people customarily go the other way.
Any advice or alternative recommendations would be much appreciated!
