[geeklog-devel] MS SQL Upgrade

[Michael Jervis]

Ah yes, I was a little confused running through it today.

I believe that with this thread as a reference and the SQL I've tuned
with a working MS SQL environment so far I can now fix it up properly
tomorrow, provided the kids give me the peace to do so.

I have media and probably the right to use a licence for SQL 2000
Developer edition on an environment so I will /try/ and establish that
and finish it off over the weekend as I get time.

Cheers,

Mike
