At work we originally ran Sharepoint 3.0 with a SQL Server 2000 backend. We don’t have an extremely involved deployment, and currently Sharepoint is only used for internal purposes. That’s my nice way of saying we don’t know a whole lot about Sharepoint.
Gaining knowledge about Sharepoint is a pretty painful process, as there’s an entirely new vocabulary to learn.
Luckily, Stackoverflow exists. I asked.
The post on stackoverflow has the details on the process. We’re one DB closer to being rid of SQL Server 2000.
