  • Hi,

    Well .. the easiest and most reliable way is to create the empty SQL 2005 database and then right click it .. Tasks .. Copy Database wizard.

    I hope that helps

  • Also consider making a backup of the SQL 2000 database and restoring it in the SQL 2005 instance.

  • I find the solution Detach database from SQL 2000 and Atach database to SQL 2005!

    But I wanted to ask for the best solution!

    So I'm looking why the application doesn't work, also it has the tool to change the connections with database...but doesn't work! Searching the problem and contacting with Appl Developer!

    Thnx anyway!
