The server does not matter, the client does. You need at least the SSMS version that ships with SQL Server 2005. It should work against any version server, as far as I know (but I never tried this).
Using SQL 2000 - Query Anayser
Fails with error message "Incorrect syntax near '100'."
Using SSM 2005 to connect to same SQL 2000 server
Executes and returns correct answer.
Thanks for running the test and confirming what I expected, Ron.
