Hi Shaun,

I'm not exactly sure what you're looking for, so I'm going to suggest a few topics. If these don't meet your needs, please provide additional details to help narrow this down a bit.

In Books Online, see

sp_dbcmptlevel (Transact-SQL).

Look for the heading "Differences Between Earlier Compatibility Levels and Level 90" . The table in this section lists specific compatibility differences between SQL Server 2000 (compatbility level 80) and SQL Server 2005 (level 90).

SQL Server 2005 Database Engine Backward Compatibility

Take a look at all four topics linked in this overview topic.

You might also want to consider using the Upgrade Advisor tool. See http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?familyid=451FBF81-AB07-4CCB-A18B-DA38F6BCF484&displaylang=en for more details and the download link.
