Backward Coompatibility

We have two different machines in different locations running SQL2000. One was upgraded to SQL2005. The problem is we can't upgrade the other at the moment cause it is running SBS2003 (requires alot more planning), But we would like to get information from the computer running SQL2005. Is there a patch that can be obtained so that we can open the database created using SQL2005 in SQL2000? We desperately need the database and upgrading to SQL2005 with SBS2003 is not straight forward.
Database files or backups created in SQL Server 2005 cannot be opened using SQL Server 2000. YOu sure can connect to the SQL Server 2005 server and get data but you are not able to use the physical files for restore or attaching.

|||If you have the Sql2000 backup in tape \ disk before upgrading. Use the backup and restore the db in Sql2000, Use Import\Export to move all the data's from Sql2005 to Sql2000 for that db. Since you don't have any option for using Sql2005 physical or backup files in sql2000.
