Actually not. It says:

Ms SQL Server 2000 Enterprise Ediditon server componenet is not supportet on
this operating system. Only client componentes will be avaible for
instalation.

I juts read that before SQL server 2000 could run i would need SP3. But I
get no chance of installing it. Is it because its enteprise edition?

my local computer! Thougt the popup window was on the server. (Using VNC)

Sounds like a permissions issue.

Installing .NET Framework on a sql server

We have a DTS package which use .NET Exe as 'Execute Process Task'.
As this is a .NET application, it requires .NET Framework. Can we
install .NET Framework on a Production SQL Server.
What are other options?
Thanks a lot for the help.
PalsIf you want to run a .NET application, you have to install the framework. I
have had no problems having the framework on an SQL server. Be aware that
the ADO.NET components require that you update MDAC to at least 2.7 so that
may affect you.
