buying sql server 2000

We have our website on a hosting server. In order for me
to change fields in our database there, they said I need
SQL Server. What should I buy? I just need the smallest,
limited parts of SQL possible- for small simple changes.Shev,
You just need to connect to that SQL Server, right? If so, you only need to
install client utlities like Query analyzer,Enterprise manager etc.Since you
cannot buy client utlities seperate, you need to buy the retail SQL
server.Just ask them if they can provide them with SQL client-only setup.If
they have enough client access licenses, they should be able to. If not, the
below article helps you in explaining the different editions of SQL Server:
