    SQL instances

    Hi,

    I am pretty sure that the answer to this one is a simple "no", but
    thought I would check anyway...

    If I upgrade a SQL7 server to SQL2000, leaving the SQL7 instance as
    the default instance on the new SQL2000 installation and install a
    named instance of SQL2000 -- Can I at a later date, make the SQL2000
    named instance the default instance and remove the old SQL7 instance
    altogether?

    Many thanks,

    Colin

      Hi

      I think that once you have removed SQL7 you can install a new SQL 2000
      instance and make it the default. You would then have to move everything
      over to that instance.
