| Hello,I would like to upgrade sql server 2000 to sql 2005. So Can I install the sql server 2005 on the same server where sql 2000 is already running and then use the database upgrade wizard. Or should I install the sql server 2005 on a different server.Thanks |

| Yes, you can host them in the same place, but you should not do that to your production server. There are many differences between the two versions. |
