Default Ageing data using Sql Server 2000

Hi there,

I've only recently started a project using sql server 2000 for the
first time. One of the considerations we have to take is that we need
to continuously age/purge data from a couple of large tables (100
million rows+) - to keep the tablesize growth to a minimum. Coming
from an Oracle background, I've used partitions to help manage this
before.

Now with Sql Server 2000, I'm wondering what the best/recommended
approaches are for ageing data - I've been struggling to find out
enough inforamtion on the msdn site, so I'm hoping some gurus out
there can help me here.

Thanks!
