Regarding ReCreating Catalog in SQL Server 2005 which was existing in SQL Server 2000

Question

Hello
I was using SQL SERVER 2000 ... In one table I've created FULL TEXT SEARCHING ( Full text catalog along with full text indexing)
Now we had to install our db in SQL SERVER 2005 standard edition. But while taking script it gave me two lines like:
if (select DATABASEPROPERTY(DB_NAME(), N'IsFullTextEnabled')) <> 1
exec sp_fulltext_database N'enable'
GO
if not exists (select * from dbo.sysfulltextcatalogs where name = N'DEV_CAS_DiagnosisCatalog')
exec sp_fulltext_catalog N'DEV_CAS_DiagnosisCatalog', N'create'
GO
so I used this in the new db creation script...
But I couldn't get where it actually is in SQL SERVER 2005 standard edition.
and also plz help how should we create if it doesn't exist...
What could be the problem....
Thanks In advance

if (select DATABASEPROPERTY(DB_NAME(), N'IsFullTextEnabled')) <> 1
exec sp_fulltext_database N'enable'
GO
if not exists (select * from dbo.sysfulltextcatalogs where name = N'DEV_CAS_DiagnosisCatalog')
exec sp_fulltext_catalog N'DEV_CAS_DiagnosisCatalog', N'create'
GO
sp_fulltext_catalog [ @ftcat= ] 'fulltext_catalog_name' ,
[ @action= ] 'action'
[ , [ @path= ] 'root_directory' ]
Full-text catalog and index data is stored in files created in a full-text catalog directory(not on SSMS). The full-text catalog directory is created as a sub-directory of the directory specified in
@path or in the server default full-text catalog directory if
@path is not specified. The name of the full-text catalog directory is built in a way that guarantees it will be unique on the server. Therefore, all full-text catalog directories on a server can share the same path.
Refer the path column by running the below query. full text catalog file is created under the root directory by default if the path is not specified.
select * from dbo.sysfulltextcatalogs where name = N'DEV_CAS_DiagnosisCatalog'
