Can you use a SQL 2000 database on SQL 7 ?

Hi,

This is impossible to perform. You can take a version 7 DB and restore it onto a SQL 200 machine but that is it. It is backwards compatible but not forward.

You will get a message when trying to restore saying " Error 3169: The backed-up database has on-disk structure version
539. The server supports version 515 ..."]

Ubique !

To get around the backup/restore issue, you can always script out the datastructures/procedures and BCP the data out and back in. However, SQL Server 2000 has some new constructs that are not in SQL Server 7 (most notably, User-defined functions), so if you use these features, they will not port over.
