| Since u r starting afresh, its easier (and having more features) if u learn 2005 directly.2000 is good and 2005 is better.Srinika |

| There are far more similarities than differences. The biggest difference (to a beginner) is proberly the managing tools (Enterprise Manager a.k.a EM for 2000 and SQL Server Management Studio a.k.a. SSMS for 2005). You can not use EM with 2005, but you can use SSMS with 2000 though.If all you need is a version to 'play' with I would suggest to download the Express edition of 2005 including the SSMS Express. It is free and and will give you a tool to play around with it at the same time.-- This one's tricky. You have to use calculus and imaginary numbers for this. You know, eleventeen, thirty-twelve and all those. |
