Copy a SQL 2000 Server database into SQL 2005 Express

I have a database in SQL 2000 that I would like to move to SQL 2005 Express.
I could re-create all of the tables from scratch. Is there an easier way to
copy this database into SQL 2005 Express from SQL 2000 sever. I do not care
about the data, just the design.
Thanks,
TimDetach the database from SQL Server2000, copy *.mdf/*.ldf to the computer
where SQL Server2005 installed, attach the files to SQL Server2005.
