Hi,

You can use DBTools (for windows http://dbtools.vila.bol.com.br)) to convert
the structure (without indexes) and data to mySQL by using ODBC DSN, or you
can dump the data into a TXT file and then import it into mysql with LOAD
DATA ...
I'm working on a wizard to convert a completely structure/data from MSSQL to
mySQL, since many people have requested that, but I have no idea yet how
much time I will spend to finish this job.

Subject: convert microsoft sql


hi there,

my client has some databases on a m$ sql server and wants them to
be converted to mysql (to use on a cheaper provider).
has anyone ever done this before?
are there many differences in the syntax or would it be easy to
translate? maybe there's tool?

thanks for your help!

christian
