I try to copy some functions and storeprocedures from SQL 2000 to SQL 2005 but got some data type error.
Where to find document to list all the changes in data type between 2000 and 2005?

2k5 should be completely backward compatabile...do you have user defined datatypes?

For example, there is a data type "uniqueid" in 2000 but not accepted in 2005. I have to change it to "numeric".

That is not a datatype in 2000...it's gotta be a user defined datatype
