Running SQL Server 2000 on a Windows XP platform

I have been checking through the literature and do not see
anything regarding installing and running SQL Server 2000
on a Windows XP platform. Does anyone know where I can
find information about this? In particular, whether or
not you can run SQL Server 2000 on a Windows XP platform?
Thanks.You can not run SQL Server Standard Edition or Enterprise Edition on Windows
XP. They only run on a server OS (Windows 2000 or 2003 Server).
All other editions, Personal Edition, Developer Edition, MSDE I think
including the Evalution Edition, run on Windows Xp.

SQL Server is a *SERVER*... see the following URL for details:
