How do I convert MDF (MS SQL) to MySQL w/o having MS SQL?

2003-12-05 Thread Mark Graves
I run a website using MySQL, PHP, and CFMX.  Someone recently gave a
data file to me that they'd like to access.  The problem is that it
appears to be from MS SQL.  How can I convert/import this into MySQL?

I did some searching and found MSSQL-to-MySQL, but this program
requires that I have MSSQL server, which I don't.

Any help would be appreciated.

there is a command but i didnt found it in the
documentation. Try dump MS SQL database into a text
file and then try mysqlimport.

Ask the person who gave you the file to do the work. Give them a list of formats you 
can read (i.e. SQL, csv, etc.) and let them decide which of those formats they want to 
export into.
