change enterprise to standard edition

I need to change my current SQL 2000 enterprise editon to SQL 2000 standard
edtion. May I know what is the best way to do it?andrew,
You need to uninstall enterprise and install standard. There's no short
cut I'm afraid. You can upgrade from standard to enterprise though.
Steps:
1) Back up all your dbs
2) Detach all your databases
3) Uninstall enterprise
4) Install standard
5) Attach the databases
If the attach fails, you can restore them.
Read this before doing anything:
