Choose and download the SQL Server 2000 Service Pack 4 from the Microsoft website. Double click on the downloaded EXE file. You should be prompted to browse to the location of the database instance (Default location: C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL$CAREWARE). Once you have chosen the location the installer should automatically upgrade the service pack for SQL Server 2000. If the installer does not automatically upgrade the service pack or generates an error during the installation process, then you will need to do the following in order to complete the upgrade. • Go to Start>Run and type “CMD” (No quotes). Click “OK”. • Change to the location of the SQL Server 2000 Service Pack directory (Default location: C:\SQL2KSP4) by typing the following: cd C:\sql2ksp4. Then press “Enter”. • Run the following command in the Service Pack 4 directory: setup /upgradesp sqlrun INSTANCENAME=CAREWare SECURITYMODE=SQL UPGRADEUSER=sa UPGRADEPWD=SAPWD DISABLENETWORKPROTOCOLS=0 • Press “Enter”.
