Connecting to SQL Server 2005

I have successfully installed SQL Server 2005 on a server that also has SQL
Server 2000. Using SQL Server 2005 interface, how could I connect to a
named instance of a SQL Server 2005 database? As I try, it keeps connecting
me to the SQL Server 2000 db. Is this something you set up in CLient tools?
Please let me know, I connect to the SQL Server using a temp dns name.
Thanks,

Not sure what you're trying, but generally it's servername\instancename. If
not instance name is provided it deafults to the default instance.
