| If it is just the client tools (not the server itself) then just upgrade to SQL 2000. It will support SQL 7.0 databases throughout (Enterprise Manager, Query Analyzer, etc.)If it's a server, in order to keep the existing SQL 7.0 running you'd need to install SQL 2000 as a named instance. The setup wizard will guide you through that part (it should be automatically detected) You can also look in Books Online for more details on named instances. |

| Addendum to Rob's post. Be sure you dont set the 2000 instance to default instance. SQL 7.0 must remain the default since it doesnt support named instances.Justin |
