While providing more functional assistance to a SME, I came accross an application still run with a SQL Server 6.5...Although the database is small, I would imagine that they could benefit from upgrading to 2000 (or 2005). Especially for security reasons. I would appreciate if you could point to some docs pros/cons of upgrading such old databases.

I think the pros are clear, using new features and getting support from microsoft for the product.
The cons will be that you will have to test you application on the new platform. Old commands might be no longer supported on the new version (running out of the compatibilty horizon)
