migrating form standard to enterprise edition

Hi,

Can someone tell me what the best way is to migrate from a SQL Server 2000
Standard Edition to a SQL Server 2000 Enterprise Edition?
Is this a migration possible from the setup program of the Enterprise
Edition?
What are the pitfalls?

Thanks in advance

Yes. See Books Online, Installing SQL Server -> Upgrading an Existing
Installation of SQL Server.

As a safety precaution, I would re-apply the latest service pack.
