SQL Server V7 Support

  • We still have a number of v7 servers hanging about.  Can anyone tell me if Microsoft still support this version or is it end of life now?

    Thanks

  • Many thanks Jo.  Yet another reason to upgrade!

  • But be wary of the 'management credo' --> "If it ain't broke, don't fix it". Also, fi you are using 3rd party applications you'll need to check them as well for compatiblity. If you're lucky maybe your vendor software is reaching EOL (end of life, and support) thus driving your upgrade !
