Are you going from SQL 7 to SQL 7? If so, just transfer to data using
DTS. I have done this a few times. Works fine for me.
Install SQL 7
configure and set up your users
Export from the old SQL and import it into the new SQL.
I find it better to create the database (leave it blank) on the new server
and use the transfer object and data selection in the DTS package.
