What do you mean by "automatic"? Automatically fix the syntax errors? No. But you can have SQL Server generate script files for all the procedures very easily. Once the scripts are generated you can load them into a text editor or word processor and do a search and replace on the offending syntax; if it is indeed something that can be fixed that way, you'll be done in no time. Once the scripts are edited you can save them and then execute them from query analyzer and the procedures will be updated.

What were the syntax errors ?

The only major problems I have seen in upgrading stored procs from sql 7 to 2000 is SQL 2000 doesn't like " for strings, preferring single quotes instead. Which you should be doing anyway.
