  Hello,

  I would like to use SQL2008 in the near future, and i have some question.

  I have a SQL Server 2000 Std Edition with Processor license runnig on Windows2003 server.

  For the next instalation I would like to use Windows 2008 Server, and because of this i have to upgrade SQL as well. As i know the SQL2000 is not fit for Windows 2008 Server.

  My question is that, can i use the curent sql license for the SQL2008 as well, or i have to order new licence or upgrde licence for that?

  Thanks in advance!

  Zoltan

  You will need to upgrade that license.
