While it may appear that the database diagram tool in SQL Server 2005 is the
same as the diagram tool in SQL Server 2000, it is not. The Database
Diagram tool in SQL Server 2005 uses supporting objects that require SQL
Server 2005 functionality. This is documented in the readme file that comes
with SQL Server 2005. Here's a bit of that text.
"To install database diagram support in SQL Server Management Studio,
databases must be in SQL Server 2005 database compatibility level. Database
compatibility level can be reset after diagram support is installed."
However, as Dan states, you cannot attach or restore a SQL 2005 database on
an instance of SQL 2000 regardless of the compatibility level of the
database.
