Hooking old apps to SQL 2005

We would like to have our old apps talk with SQL 2005. What do I have to do
to make that happen. I have installed the SQL 2005 native client, and
defined an alias to the SQL Server. I still get connection errors so
obviously I have not done enough to set this up, or it can't be done .
Can someone direct me to some documentation or explain how to do this?
Thanks.
BarryNevermind, got it working
