sqlserver7.0 database migration to sqlserver2000

  • Please let me know what is the easiest way to migrate database in its entirety from sqlserver7 to sqlserver2000 including all tables, storedprocedures, views,users. Is there something i need to be cautious about?

    suggestions are appreciated.

  • I migrated from 6.5 to 7. It seemed as though getting the users setup was a much needed first step. The transition from 7 to 2000 may be easier because of DTS. If nothing else you could script out stuff from 7 create it on 2000 and then migrate the data. Good luck 🙂

  • You can also use the Copy Database Wizard. I didn't have any problems with Logins when I used this. Also, it copied my scheduled jobs as well. The only thing that I couldn't copy was the DTS packages, but I was able to use Access to copy the records from sysdtspackages in MSDB fast.
