It’ll work fine, I’ve done this a couple of times without any problems.
Just remember if you want to use SQL2005’s features on the database, change the compatibility mode from 80 to 90 under the database properties after you attach it.
To do this once the database is running, right-click it, go to “Properties”, then click the “Options” menu item on the left, and “Compatibility Level” will appear.
Running the script below will also work.
