Hi gurus
I try to detached a database but the detach entry is gray out thus I cannot
detach the database.

I am logged in as sa , mssql2000 . Right click on the database -> All tasks
-> Detach database ( Gray out ).....

Any idea what is wrong? Why is it gray out?

What database are you trying to detach? If it is a system database, you
cannot detach it.

On all databases including masters, model and or users databases. On the
other sqlserver instances I have no such issue?!?!?!?

Are you sure the instance you are connecting to is a SQL Server 2000
instance?
