I need to create a Linked Server from SQL Server 2012 Express Edition to a SQL Server 2000 instance. Whilst trying to do the same, I am getting an error as follows: sql server native client 11.0 does not support connections to sql server 2000 or earlier version. Is there any work around in order to do it ? Please suggest and thanks in advance.

It should be enough to install Microsoft® SQL Server® 2008 R2 Native Client. You can download it from the Microsoft® SQL Server® 2008 R2 Feature Pack page. The SQL Server 2008R2 Client allows connections to SQL 2000 - 2008R2. Once installed, you can use OLEDB provider of the SQL 2008R2 client to create the Linked server.
