Hi all! I don´t know if this topic must be posted here...but here we go.
I manage a server that has an installation of MSSQL2000 which is licensed 'per processor' and i need to change it to 'per seat'. Is there any way to do it, or i must to install all again?

I think you must install again, but that's not too dificult a process, just time consuming.

I know that Steve, but time isn't my most available resource

There is a reg hack you can try (usual MS caveats about editing the registry apply)
To change the Licensing mode for SQL Server
2000 back to "per processor" by editing the "mode" value in the following Registry key:
HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Microsoft SQL
Server\80\MSSQLLicenseInfo\MSSQL8.00
Set the mode value to 0 for the "per seat" licensing mode and to 2 for the "per processor" licensing mode.
