 Huh? If you would NOT like to transition to MySQL, then why are you
 asking all these stuff?

Stop picking on the OP for a typo.

Hi Arjun,

Check out the MySQL Migration Toolkit and some other tools available at
http://www.mysql.com/products/tools/migration-toolkit/ and
http://dev.mysql.com/downloads/gui-tools/5.0.html. Do a test migration
and some testing on the migrated dataset, and you can then probably set
up a plan for the transition. 

Sincerely,

Raj Mehrotra

Subject: transitioning from ms sql

Hi,

I have been using MS SQL for the last one year, however would not like
to transition to mysql. At the first glance it looks very different from
ms sql and the tools are also different. can someone tell me if there is
any document which explains the equivalence and how i could port a lot
of my queries, tables, views and stored procedures to my sql from ms
sql.

Best Regards,
Arjun
