SYMPTOMS
When you install the Office Server Extensions (OSE), the setup program does not detect Microsoft SQL Server on the computer.



CAUSE
You are using a version of SQL Server older than version 6.5.



RESOLUTION
To resolve this problem, install SQL Server version 6.5 or higher prior to installing the Office Server Extensions.



MORE INFORMATION
Office 2000 Server Extensions require SQL Server 6.5 or higher. If you are running an older version of SQL Server, you must upgrade prior to installing the Office Server Extensions. The Office Server Extensions will install the Microsoft Data Engine (MSDE) in order to provide needed functionality if setup does not detect SQL 6.5 or higher. MSDE is a subset of SQL Server 7.0.
