Is this possible in SQL Server 2000 and MySQL?

30 New Member
hi guys, is it possible that i can retrieve records from different database like SQL Server 2000 and MySQL?
example, assuming i have some table in SQL Server 2000 and i also have in MySQL. the table in SQL Server 2000 is for example Table1 and in MySQL is Table2.
if i create a query that will combine and retrieve the fields of the two database, is it possible?
if so anyone who have idea with that and how to do that?

Thank You.

I assume you mean retrieving records from different servers because from different databases on the same Server it is just as simple as mentioning database name and owner in front of your table name like this:
Databasename.db o.tablename
First ask your DBA to link both servers. With linked server it is really easy to do. If you don’t have DBA go to help then search for subject ‘linked servers’. When servers are linked you query tables like this
Servername.Data basename.dbo.ta blename
Also you can try OPENDATASOURCE query. Search for it in SQL help. You still need correct drivers to be installed on SQL server side and use them as provider otherwise it will not work.
Good Luck.

I'm trying to do an export from an SQL Server 2000 Database to and ODBC driver pointed to a mySQL Server Database. The export works if there is at least one record in the mySQL table. If the mySQL table is empty it gives an error that looks like this: Insert error, column 1 ('field1', DBTYPE_STR), status 6: Data overflow. The strange part is that the export works perfectly fine as long as there is one record in the mySQL table, if there...

Hello I am using version 4.0.12-nt of MySQL and when I hit the enter key rapidly I can't connect to the database.

We've fooled around with Access a bit, but only using the single-user store-bought version. It seems to be a good database - versatile and infinitely programmable - and can apparently be used as a front end to SQL server if we ever needed to go that route. But - is there a client/server version of Access ? Looking on the CDW site there is a bewildering variety of packages and licences and such, but we can't figure out just which do...

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".

In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
