This bug still exists in 5.2.6, code to reproduce remains the same.
mssql_select_db('mysilly-database'); will result in an error claiming
that mysilly does not exist within sysdatabases (a mssql system table).

2007 - PHP 5.2.3 still have this issue.
Connection to MSSQL databases with dash continues to fail (using
FreeTDS 0.63). Databases without dashes in the name connect without
error.

2006 - PHP 4.4.2/4 and PHP 5.1.2/4 still have this issue.
The same code use-case is valid: try to connect to a MSSql database
with dashes in the name, and the connection will fail.

Try creating a database called php-bugs-list and one
called php_bugs_list.
mssql_connect('localhost','username','pwd') or die
'mssql_connect error';
mssql_select_db('php-bugs-list') or die
'mssql_select_db error';
mssql_connect('localhost','username','pwd') or die
'mssql_connect error';
mssql_select_db('php_bugs_list') or die
'mssql_select_db error';
I am not 'demanding' a fix - I have learnt that I will
avoid errors by having no dashes in the database name.
My problem is solved.
I tried to share this with other php users, If you want
to use this information to improve php you are welcome
to it - but please don't waste my time by being anal
about how the bug is reported.
And that's the end of it, AFAIAC.
