I uninstalled SQL 2005 in favor of SQL 2000. Too many interface issues, and
the final deciding facter is the tools seemed to mess up the publications on
a SQL 2000 server! I am in the process of deleting all of the subscriptions
and recreating them!

Sure wish these tools were more backward compatible and user friendly so I
could start the process of learning and migration.

Why in the world was the "Open x number of rows" removed in favor of just
"Open", which returns * from a table? Sounds dumb from a performance
standpoint.
