You will have to make the necessary changes in your project to account for the sql db versions.

SQL 2013? I welcome you Michel de Nostredame! :)

The best thing to do is try. It will depend on if you used anything in SQL 2005 that is now no longer supported. Is SQL 2013 even a version?

We migrated from SQL 2005 to SQL 2012 recently, and found that there weren't too many issues. Assuming you have set your code up to pass through information to your SQL Server correctly, using standard methods, it should work.

One issue I did come across related to Triggers, particularly system generated ones (for enforcing relationships etc). Some code that was used in there (system generated) had been deprecated, and no longer worked. Locating them and updating them was tedious, but not particularly difficult.
