Hi All,

My boss has decided it's finally time to ditch MS SQL 2000 and migrate to SQL 2008. I just wondered if anyone had done it, and if so, what problems did you encounter? I'm making a list of 'Things that could go wrong' and thought i'd try and find out as much as i can by asking people who'd experienced it.

Thanks in advance guys, any help would be great
