I need to transfer sample data from one server (running MSSQL 2000) to another using running MSSQL 2005 express. How can I do this?

Linked servers and DTS should work. Or linked servers and "insert into server1.dbname1.dbo.table1 select from server2.dbname2.dbo.table2. You'll need the four part naming convention for that. Or, if it's all the data, how about a backup and restore of the entire database?

or even adhoc queries using OPENROWSET() or using export/import wizard will help you transfer data to new server.
