Installed Vista on my machine only to realise that SQL2000 can't be run as a server within this OS.

I've got VS2005 which comes with SQL2005 Express and was wondering if there was any MAJOR differences between the two engines.

I have a lot of databases, that use stored procedures in SQL2000 format and was wondering if these can be converted or attached in SQL2005 Express, worked on, and then converted back to SQL2000.

Alternatively, anyone had any joy in running SQL2000 in Vista?
 
Tried and tested this today after a bit of hassle but happy to say it works an absolute charm!

Thanks for the help.
