Can you import SQL 2005 express edition database into an SQL 2000 server.
 
You can import the table and views by creating the new datbase in 2000 then importing the tables and views into that database from 2005 express edition. Also be sure to create all the users before importing the tables and views.
 
Another way is to use the gui to create all the objects in the 2005 db and then execute the script in the 2000 sql server DB. You will still have to pull the data over. U could also restore from a backup I think but I have yet to test this method
