32bit to 64bit

  • Is it possible to replicate a SQL2K5 database from 32bit to 64bit?

    Unfortunately you have to take every column, trigger and stored procedure and convert it into 64 bit using the sql 2005 64bit compiler.

    😛

    Seriously though there should be no issues doing this as the data is the same its just the software that it runs on top of.

  • Thanks for the reply, jbuchan.

    You hand me scared for a minute! :unsure:

    Now all I have to do is figure out how to setup replication. 😀
