Hi

I have loaded SQL 2005 standard Server. Several Times. I have loaded sp2 and still cannot get the copy database wizard option. Please help. I would like to copy the db from 2k to 2005. that way I will recieve all of the logins etc and it works when i did it in 2000.

thank you for your support

Go here for the script to create you logins on the new server. Works flawlessly.

Instead of using the copy database wizard, why not simple backup and restore. Or detach for 2000 and attach on 2005? Seems so much easier, to me!
