Some databases on SQL 2008 R2 are in 90 compatibility mode, before I change it to 100, I would like to know what will break, so I ran Upgrade advisor for SQL 2008 R2 but it is giving bunch of errors like below:

Method not found: ”System.Collections.Generic.IEnumerable`1 Microsoft.SqlServer.Management.SqlParser.SqlCodeDom.SqlCodeObject.get_Errors()”.

If I have no. of stored procedures in my database which are joined with an old style (*=, =*) for right or left joins, how can i convert them automatically instead of converting the each sp code manually.

Is there anyway to do that ?

In SQL 2008 we can do it using Alter command

ALTER DATABASE database_name
SET COMPATIBILITY_LEVEL = { 80 | 90 | 100 }

@Paul.

There is free in build tool Upgrade Advisor that comes with SQL Server, it could be downloaded as well from web.

I suggest you run Upgrade Advisor on your database, it will list all issues that you could face after upgrade (changing compatibility from 2000 to 2005).

I suggest not to do this on production databases, run this test, in your Test/Dev Env.

Will there be any problems changing the compatibility level from 2000 to 2005?

Hello.
On a 2005 sql restore basic sql 2000 that were compatible with 80, my question is that considerations or soft I can run to verify incompatibilities, and then switch compatibility 90 smoothly.
Thank you
