Can't you dump the database from sqlserver2005 into *.sql file and then import it into mysql...?

re: migrated from sqlserver2005 to mysql

i dont suggest it its to differant formats. the migration tool for sql to mysql takes procedures, functions, modules, schemas, etc... buts them in mysql format for the migration.

its like going from a windows platform to linux platform its not going to happen with out some sort of migration process.

i suggest using the tool so that you don't destroy your sys or system hive in mysql.

hope this helps.
