Old Minolta lenses, new DSLR camera?

Can anyone give me advice on whether I can use my old Minolta AF lenses (for Minolta 7000) on a new DSLR please. I want to upgrade from compact digital to a DSLR and thought that if I can re-use these three lenses I already have it would be a saving.
Any thoughts please

Just remember, the focal length of film lenses on digital bodies increases by 1.8x, so a 100mm lens from your '7000' will be a 180mm on a Sony DSLR (unless of course you are rich enough to buy a full-frame model, in which case the focal length is the same )
BTW, I would avoid the A230/3380 & 550 models as they are really dumbed-down. if you choose to go the Sony route, buy a good 2nd-hand A200,350 body.Never Knowingly Understood.
