My current SQL server is SQL2005 Server express. I have 5 ERP databases (Great Plains) running on it.

My new server is SQL2008 R2 - I don't expect any compatibility issues - am I correct?

I should only have to change the compatibility level under 'options' (database properties) correct?

Thanks in advance.....

Check the Great Plains web site to see if it's compatible with 2008 R2.

Thanks Tara - I checked and MBS requires applying a Service Pack which I am now applying. Good Insight. Thanks again.
