=if you are converting, why not use SQL to 'export' the data from SQL-Server, and import it into MySQL? =Or do you mean that the web front-end is only for users to view the data, but that all updating transactions will be carried out through some VB-based system, and that you are contemplating having two databases/RDBMS-es? =Please clarify, =dn --------------------------------------------------------------------- Before posting, please check: http://www.mysql.com/manual.php (the manual) http://lists.mysql.com/ (the list archive) To request this thread, e-mail <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To unsubscribe, e-mail <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Trouble unsubscribing?
