ms SQL server 2000 on WinXPhome

dear sirs is Ms SQL server 2000 enterprise edition compatible on WinXp home edition?? OR does it require Win2003 enterprise edition??
regards,
kanishkEnterprise Edition is not compatible with Windows XP Home edition. Developer edition is however, and has the same features. Enterprise Edition requires a server OS, but enterprise edition of the OS is not required, so you can install SQL Server 2000 Enterprise Edition on Windows Server 2003 Standard Edition if you should desire.|||dear sir, if you are sure that the ms sql server 2000 developer edition...is compatible with winxp home edition then where can i download it??

kanishk|||even then can you please tell me where will the tutorials for ms SQL server 2000 edterprise edition be available??|||Get SQL Server 2000 Books Online (BOL) it is free documentation which all DBAs use. It doesn't matter which version of SQL you use, everyone uses BOL.|||dear sir, if you are sure that the ms sql server 2000 developer edition...is compatible with winxp home edition then where can i download it??

It's available from your sofware dealer. SQL Server Developer edition is not free. And yes, I am sure that it runs on Windows XP Home: SQL Server 2000 System Requirements (http://www.microsoft.com/sql/prodinfo/previousversions/system-requirements.mspx).

MS SQL Server 2000 Enterprise Edition! Need Help!

hi everyone, i am doing a project on asp.net and i'm want to use the sql server 2000 EE and is using WinXp Pro.
I have problems installing the s/w. It says "Microsoft Server 2000 Enteprise Edition Server Components is not supported on this OS. Only Client components will be available for installation."
Is it true that i can't install SQL Server 2000 EE on XP Pro?
And is it true that i can only use the Standard Edition?

Need Help!
ThanksYes it is true, but you cannot use Standard neither as it needs Server OS as well.

See this page for exact details:

thanks very much..|||On WindowsXP Pro, you can either use:

a) MSDE
b) SQL Server Developer Edition (available through MSDN Subscription etc)
c) SQL Server Personal Edition

Edit: oops, didn't scroll down far enough on Teemu's link - personal edition is listed on that page! Sorry for the redundant post.|||u mean the Developer Edition can be downloaded from MSDN?|||If you have an MSDN subscription...
