I'm trying to install SQL server 2000 Desktop Edition but
whenever i open the Seup.exe it gets to a part and
sais "A strong sa password is required for securety
reasons. please use SAPWD switch the apply the same.
refer to the readme for more detalis. setp will now
exit." and it exits. what is this SAPWD switch, how can i
use it to let my SQL server install properly? and might
the fact that on my WinXP home edition login we use a
single account with no password?
