I have used an update command to update the whole table in an Sql Server 2000 database by mistake. I was actually meaning to update just one row. Now all the 2000 rows contain the update. Is there a way to roll back this change?

Unless you started your update with an explicit transaction, no.
However, you might be able to use Log Rescue . I’m not sure though if this can help you in this case.
A better option might be to restore a backup to a new database and merge the old and new tables.
