I restored the database from SQL server 2000 to 2005.The database was restored with 80 compatibility.Can i change it to 90 and what are the effects? Coz my applications are pulling data from SQL server 2000. Does 80 work for database mirroring?

changing it to 90 will let you use 90 specific features.

Got this in BOL:

Database mirroring works with any supported database compatibility level.

you can change compatibility level from 80 to 90 but take care , and do this steps:

check all view and procedure, if all objects true keep compatibility level 90 , if has error
edit these scripts or return to compatibility level 80
