If you need to change it completely I think you need to resinstall. If you need to change licensing mode you could use this:http://www.tkdinesh.com/faq/ans/license.html

Thanks for the information, it is per processor license, what i need to dois to remove the existing license and add the new one.

So if this works, you would change the # of processors to 0, continue, rerun the license manager, change #processors to 1, and provide the new license info? Is that what worked for you, or did you have to reinstall? Thanks,
Sean.

IN SQL server 2000 you will have only one opportunity to change the license mode otherwise you need to reinstall the binaries setup again. Satya SKJ
