SQL 2000 and SQL 7.0 on same server

  • I installed SQL 2000 on my notebook. Recently I had to install SQL 7.0 on my notebook as well. Apparently you can install both versions on the same machine. I installed SQL 7.0 on a different drive. However, when I launch SQL 2000 Enterprise manager I receive the following message: The procedure entry point ?UpCast@CDMOQUeryInterface@@SAJPAUIWSQLDMODatabase@@PAPAUIWSQLDMODatabase2@@Z could not be located in the dynamic link library SEMCOMN.dll. The application then closes.

    Any ideas?

  • Did you already try to reinstall the Client tools?  This will probably fix your problem with EM.

  • i'm under the impression that SQL7 must be installed first as a default instance.

    after that is installed, you could install either/both SQL2000 and SQL 20005 as named instances on the machine.

    i think you need to save your backups and mdf files, uninstall everything from SQL, and reinstall with SQL7 first, then SQL 2000, then restore and reattach databases.

     

    I'm sure that when you installed SQL7, it overwrote portions of the default install and screwed things up.

     

    On my machine, I have all three versions installed, in the order above; so i've got SQL7 as the default instance, and named instances of machinename\SQL2000 and machinename\SQL2005

  • Thanks Luke and Lowell,

    I have opted to uninstall everything. I then installed SQL7.0 as the default instance and then installed SQL2000. All the applications that use SQL7.0 and SQL 2000 work 100%

    Thanks again for the help
