How Is The SQL2000 Desktop Licensed?

Could the SQL2000 Desktop Engine be bought individually or they one
have to buy the Enerprise version in order to get the Desktop Engine?

All we need right now is the Desktop Engine.

Thank you very much

Do you mean "Personal Edition" or MSDE 2000? MSDE 2000 is a free
download from MS: http://www.microsoft.com/sql/msde/default.asp

Personal Edition is included as a part of Standard and Enterprise for
use with workstations and cannot be purchased separately.

This database has a number of views which are owned by user INFORMATION_SCHEMA and are set as system tables. This user doesn't actually have a login on the SQL server.

Moved an app from W/2000 Asp V1.0 to W/2003, VS/2003, ASPV 1.1 Page runs a long job, uploading 2 large fixed length files (300,000 rows) into SQL database. A process is run against the data, and altered flat-files produced. The job aborts at EXACTLY 105 seconds (1 min, 45 seconds) regardless of WHERE in the process we are - could be DB read, DB write, string manipulation - whatever.

I am trying to add a SQL2000 subscriptor to a SQL2005 publisher and distributor using the Management Studio. I'm using a non-standard port in both ends, but I have set the port for the TCP/IP protocol to the non-standard port in both the server and client network configuration. I can add the SQL2000 server to the Management Studio console without problems, and even without haveing to specify the port I'm using (as expected)

I have a friend who's small company is on VB6 and SQL2000 for their apps. They would like to know what arguments (high level) there are for upgrading to the current version/platform of VB.NET 2008 and SQL2008. Saying "newer/better/faster" isn't a strong enough argument when the counter to that could be "if it ain't broke, don't fix it". Does anyone have a few bullet points that make an argument for upgrading? Thanks.

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...

Let's talk about the concept of autonomous AI software engineers and no-code agents. These AIs are designed to manage the entire lifecycle of a software development project—planning, coding, testing, and deployment—without human intervention. Imagine an AI that can take a project description, break it down, write the code, debug it, and then launch it, all on its own.... Now, this would greatly impact the work of software developers.
