I was hoping for some wisdom from the good folks on this list about moving databases from access to MySQL. I am aware of the brute force method of exporting in CSV format or tab delimited formats and using mysqlimport to move the tables. 1. I was wondering if there was a way to dump access databases in SQL queries like the mysqldump utility does ? 2. When exporting tab delimited values from access and using mysqlimport everything works fine except date columns. All the data moves except the date field which shows up zero's I mysql after I use mysqlimport. Does anyone have a clue on what might be happening? 3. Is there any way other than downloading some shareware third party programs to transfer my databases from access to MySQL ? I would appreciate any help at all. Thanks to everyone in advance !

I want to select all of the distinct employee names, and if there are two employees with the same name, I want to be able to choose only one; the one with the highest pay rate. If there are two identical employee names with the same pay rate, I want to select the one that has the lowest unique ID number. Can anyone help me on how to write this query?
