HELP- need to convert SQL 6.5 Back Up to 2000

HELP- need to convert SQL 6.5 Back Up to 2000
I have made enterprise manager back ups of two databases
on a SQL 6.5 server. The back ups are .dat files. I
want/need to convert these to SQL 2000 or SQL 7.0. I have
a SQL 2000 server. I tried to create a new database on
the SQL 2000 server and then restore the back ups to the
SQL 2000 server's new database I just created. I get an
error saying that the back up is not valid.
What is the procedure for getting this .dat 6.5 back up to
SQL 2000?
mick2767@.hotmail.comWhat you should do is to use the Upgrade Wizard... If you have the SQL 6.5
server with the dbs installed... Simply go to program files -> SQL Server
and you will find the upgrade wizard... That's the way to go.!

over existing database is checked. That might solve your problem.

Help me to understand this SQL sentence

Set @.mSQL = 'SELECT Max([AccountID] + [ItemID] + [StorehouseID] + [BINID] + [LotItemID] + Convert(varchar(10),[BalDate],111)) AS [KEY],
AccountID, ItemID, StorehouseID, BINID, LotItemID INTO [xIV_tblStockSumLastDate' + ']
FROM IV_tblIVMaster
WHERE (BalDate<= 'Exec(@.mSQL + '''' + @.mtxtDate + '''' + ')
GROUP BY ItemID, AccountID, StorehouseID, BINID, LotItemID')what is that sql sentence supposed to be doing?

it looks like it's trying to be recursive|||If we are trying to get some value into the variable , then this query is no good.
"Set @.mSQL = 'SELECT Max([AccountID] "
should actuallu read
"SELECT @.mSQL = Max([AccountID] "

Hope this helps...|||First we must identify the subject, then the verb, and if they exist, the direct object and the indirect object....Oh, sorry.

Any ideas what the value of @.mSQL was before this assignment? Maybe the original programmer was trying to reduce the number of variables he had?

dangquanghai - are you saying that this actually works?

Doesn't look like it from here|||I m sure It run smoothly.|||I can give you the examble from SQL server book online

C. Use EXECUTE 'tsql_string' with a variable
This example shows how EXECUTE handles dynamically built strings containing variables. This example creates the tables_cursor cursor to hold a list of all user-defined tables (type = U).

Note This example is shown for illustrative purposes only.

DECLARE tables_cursor CURSOR
FOR
SELECT name FROM sysobjects WHERE type = 'U'
OPEN tables_cursor
DECLARE @.tablename sysname
FETCH NEXT FROM tables_cursor INTO @.tablename
WHILE (@.@.FETCH_STATUS <> -1)
BEGIN
/* A @.@.FETCH_STATUS of -2 means that the row has been deleted.
There is no need to test for this because this loop drops all
user-defined tables. */.
EXEC ('DROP TABLE ' + @.tablename)
FETCH NEXT FROM tables_cursor INTO @.tablename
END
PRINT 'All user-defined tables have been dropped from the database.'
DEALLOCATE tables_cursor|||Uh-Oh... you said the forbidden word... "cursor"...|||Oh sorry friends !!!
this sentence
Set @.mSQL = 'SELECT Max([AccountID] + [ItemID] + [StorehouseID] + [BINID] + [LotItemID] + Convert(varchar(10),[BalDate],111)) AS [KEY],
AccountID, ItemID, StorehouseID, BINID, LotItemID INTO [xIV_tblStockSumLastDate' + ']
FROM IV_tblIVMaster
WHERE (BalDate<= 'Exec(@.mSQL + '''' + @.mtxtDate + '''' + ')
GROUP BY ItemID, AccountID, StorehouseID, BINID, LotItemID')

contain two sentences
1. Set @.mSQL = 'SELECT Max([AccountID] + [ItemID] + [StorehouseID] + [BINID] + [LotItemID] + Convert(varchar(10),[BalDate],111)) AS [KEY],
AccountID, ItemID, StorehouseID, BINID, LotItemID INTO [xIV_tblStockSumLastDate' + ']
FROM IV_tblIVMaster
WHERE (BalDate<= '

2.'Exec(@.mSQL + '''' + @.mtxtDate + '''' + ')
GROUP BY ItemID, AccountID, StorehouseID, BINID, LotItemID')

The coder typed it at the same row so it make me confuse
Now, It is so clear
Thank for your consideration|||Uh-Oh... you said the forbidden word... "cursor"...I think that was to explain to us what EXEC does :)|||Ah. So that is what EXEC does. I had no idea. Apparently it is a convenient method for f***ing up an application. The posted code demonstrates it clearly.
