Upgrade Client connectiviity tools on client machines

Hello,
Is it necessary to upgrade the Client Connectivity Tools on all client
machines after the SQL Server database server is upgraded from Version
7.0 to 2000?

Thank you in advance!

Depends on whether you plan to use any feature that are specific to SQL2000.
For instance, if you plan to use named instances, you need to update the
client tools.
