This is kind of an open letter and request for help. Also would apply to our pgSQL friends as well. What would be a major benefit is Guides/FAQs etc on converting from Oracle or MSSQL to MySQL and pgSQL Easy data conversion and export from Oracle & MSSQL to MySQL and pgSQL And so on .. Today I can't "convert" anyone on using an open source DB but taking one step at a time, doing demonstration projects, etc. I can happen. Any thoughts, ideas, etc ? -pete Pete Lancashire Unix Systems Administration Columbia Sportswear Co. Inc.
