Do SQL 7 CALs count for a SQL 2000 install?

Hi,
I have a client with SQL 7 and they need to go to SQL 2000 via an upgrade to
run their now updated app. Do their existing SQL 7 CALs allow then to access
the SQL 2000 server or do they have to buy all the CALs again. Or maybe there
is some upgrade price.
Their vendor has priced 60 SQL 200 CALs at £8,100.00 - which isnt too cheap(!)
Thanks.From the server EULA:
"Any CAL must have the same or later version number than the corresponding
version number of the Server Software being used."

Ask the vendor about upgrade pricing.

Do I need to reinstall analysis services after we upgraded sqlserv

Do I need to reinstall/upgrade analysis services after we upgraded sqlserver
from stanadard edition to enterprise edition? The developer tried to use
partition on analysis service and message from analysis manager showed that
it is not aware that our sqlserver has been upgraded to enterprise edition
already. "user-defined partitions are available only if you installed
analysis services on enterprise edition".
May be the problem is caused by the meta data repository? If we migrate the
repository to SQL server, the problem will be resolved?
