Hello, Does anyone have any pointers or links to "how-tos" for converting from a microsoft sql server to mysql? I know it's much more complicated than simply "converting", but I was just looking for pointers. Basically we have an accounting system that was written for us by an employee. Hes a Microsoft guy, I'm a Linux guy. He wrote it all in VB and accesses the database via ADO. I would like to start using a mysql server on our linux box, and he is willing to help re-write the software. Initially he said he couldn't use MySQL because he needed transactional support but MySQL max takes care of that AFAIK. Other than that it is a fairly basic system.
So if anyone has done this before or has any tips/hints/etc I would love to hear the info!
