Apparently you cannot go backwards. Once 2005 Express is installed, even removing it does not allow you to setup MSDE 2000 again. So there is no "trying it out" option.
Unfortunately, our software does not use 2005 Express. I tried it out, and now have a useless testing workstation that can't have MSDE 2000 installed again.
Any ideas on how to break the chain here are welcome.
Hi,
If the workstation is just for testing, can you not just rebuild it?
Failing that have you tried removing all of the SQL Server registry keys/values before trying MSDE 2000 reinstall?
Regards,
Gary.
