RS2005 and SQL2000

Hi,

As per my reading, using RS2005 with backend database as SQL 2000 is

possible.

Can anyone tell me whether RS2005 connect to SQL 2000 database on same same

machine. i.e. in short can RS2005 reside with SQL 2000?

Which edition of RS 2005 support backend as SQL2000?

TIA,

Tanmaya

The SQL Server 2000 metadata database backend can be on the same machine or on a different machine.

Non-Express Editions of RS 2005 support the internal metadata database residing on a SQL Server 2000 server.

hi Robert,

i've installed RS 2005 developer edition on a pc which i've installed SQL Server 2000 developer edition as well.

i've configured everything using RS Configuration and everything has green tick, except Encryption keys, Email settings and Execution Account which are not compulsory items.

But when i browse Report Manager using IE or browse reportserver VD from IIS , it just wouldn't show - The page could not be displayed.

No error message. Anything else i should be checking ?

pls help. thanks
