Just install SQL Server 2005 Express edition - problem solved, simply detach
and attach the SQL 2000 database.

The Express edition is free and comes with a lot of stuff, reporting, tools.

Could you *PLEASE* stop *being rude and ignoring netiquette*, where
asked *SEVERAL TIMES* to STOP TOP-POSTING.

Could you also please STOP PROMOTING sqlserver in an Oracle newsgroup.

Anyone with a bit of brain knows that Sqlserver is lightyears behind
of Oracle, and will always be outplayed by Oracle.
It is quite easy to start posting factual evidence in all sqlserver
groups there are on the net,
which will unlike your BULLSHIT MARKETING demonstrate sqlserver is A
TOY, and will never get out of that stage.
