Is there any way to:
pull SQL Server 2005 database tables into a SQL Server 2000 database,
without installing Management Studio on the SQL 2000 server?

Hello, if this a one time thing I would use the import export wizard on the
SQL 2005 side and migrate that way. If that is not possible you could script
the tables and use bcp on both sides one to pull the data out and one to push
the into.

there are lots of ways to do this work. If you don't want the SQL 2005
client on the SQL 2000 then your options are less. you can install just the
client with out installing SSMS on the SQL 2000 side if that helps at all.

Hope that helps

Well it is not a 1 time thing,
is that client (only) install free? if so, where can I download it install
it on the 2000 server?
Thanks.

The client is free and when installed you can leave out the SSMS if so
desired. Unfortunately microsoft does not provide a client only install as
Sybase or Oracle do which is a sore point with me. The client install in
bundled with all the available installation bases of SQL 2005 so that would
include the developer edition or express edition. you can down load either of
these and then do a install and when you see the check boxes click on
advanced and select only the components your interested in.
