>SQL 2000 and SQL 2005 should have different instance names. I know that SQL 2005 will not let you install over 2000 with the same instance name. I don't know if SQL 2000 works the same. You may have both versions sharing the same instance name.


Yes, with the same login and password the two versions works, but a Data Base that I have in 2005 version can't be opned. When I try to Atach in the new instance an error message is displayed.
