Hello!
I am not very familiar with mysql or sql in general... but I would like to convert a sql db to a mysql db. I've searched around and it seems like it's possible.
My question is, is this something that is difficult or fairly easy to do? From my work with mysql it doesn't strike me that it would be hard, but because it is a different db I assume there are probably some things I should know.
What format should I get from the SQL server? My buddy said he can provide the file as a db or a flat file. Or is there something else I should request that would make it easier.
thanks for the help!
