sql server (microsoft) : Database change management process

Dear
In our company, we use sql server 2000 as the database server for
softwares we produce. The problem is the way that we track the changes
in database and control the changes which every developer makes in db
(something like source safe that controls the code changes for our
source codes) . I would like to learn (and ofcourse use) about
processes of change control for sql server databases and so on...
Do you know any idea or resources about that?

move to SQL Server 2005 and use 'DDL Triggers'

Use a database project in Visual Studio (which integrates seamlessly with Source
Safe). Make all code changes in a development environment, then migrate them to
your other environments via a controlled process (i.e. DBA applies database
change scripts).

for the record; Visual Studio isn't as powerful as 'Microsoft Access'
is for writing stored procedures.

plus VS and Visual Source Safe costs an assload.

like.. 3 grand or something.
you could buy a new server for that much
