sql server 7 on windows 2003 1

[beechill4]

Hi,

i have a number of sql server 7 databases that currently reside on nt4 servers

these nt4 servers will be replaced by w2003 servers before the end of this year.

can someone point me in the way of a white paper(s) on moving ss7 to w2003-

Thanks

Hi,

just found out that sql 7 will not be supported on windows 2003

tells the whole story...

Yep, you'll need to upgrade to SQL 2000. I'd recommend making this upgrade anyway as support for SQL 7 is almost gone.
