--- Reports the current compatibility level of 'MyDBName'
EXEC sp_dbcmptlevel 'MyDBName';
GO

--- Changes it to SQL 2000 - 80
EXEC sp_dbcmptlevel 'MyDBName', '80';
GO

--- Changes it to SQL 2005 - 90
EXEC sp_dbcmptlevel 'MyDBName', '90';

But, I think I painted myself in a corner. I have a 6.5 compatible database that is offline... I can't detach it, and can't use the above EXEC command b/c the database is offline (around and around we go). In hindsight, I should have made all my database ONLINE and then updated the compatibility level and all would have been good.
