32bit and 64bit binaries on 64bit Windows?

Does SQL Server 2000 SP4 enable the Standard Edition to run in native x64-bi
t
mode or is it just the Enterprise Edition?
We want to consolidate our three, separate 32-bit servers for SQL Server 7,
SQL Server 2000, and SQL Server 2005 (all Standard Editions) to all run on a
single, beefed up 64-bit server.
We want to be able to simultaneously run the SQL Server 7 and SQL Server
2000 Standard Editions in the WoW64 emulator and run the SQL Server 2005
Standard Edition in native x64 bit mode.
Some of the documentation I found says “SQL Server will NOT support both
32-bit SQL in WOW and native 64-bit SQL co-existing on same server. Example:
Once you install 32-bit SQL Server Engine the server Cannot run 64-bit Engin
e
on same hardware.”
I interpret that statement to apply to each individual SQL Server engine.
Am I correct in my interpretation? Can we run the SQL Server 7 and SQL
Server 2000 Standard Editions in the WoW64 emulator and run the SQL Server
2005 Standard Edition in native x64 bit mode simultaneously on the same
64-bit server?Bump.
