MySQL -> Linked Server in MS SQL Server

MySQL -> Linked Server in MS SQL Server

Post by Mike Harkne » Fri, 27 Feb 2004 05:54:57



Hi,

I'm trying to set up a MySQL database running on a Linux box as a Linked
server in MS SQL Server on a WIndows 2000 box, using MySQL ODBC Connector
3.51, and am having problems.

I can set up a linked server if both DB's (MySQL and MSSQL Server) are
running on a Windows2000 box, and I can use DTS in SQL Server to retrieve
data from the LInux MySQL Db using the ODBC Connector.

Any pointers to documentation, suggestions would be very welcome

Cheers

Mike Harknett

Ok! This works, but what about modifying fields in the MySQL Linked
Server ?
I have this problem from long ago.=20
I'm waiting for a new ODBC driver with at least the ability to send two
distinct command as a workaround for the need for the openquery call to
have something in return.=20

Eg:=20
select a.* from openquery(MySQLLinkedServer, 'INSERT INTO company
(company_name, costreet, creditlimit) VALUES ("A", 10.10 , 10.10);
select trim(company_name), trim(costreet), creditlimit from company')

Or there is something I don't understand (or some trick with MySQL
stored procedures) ?

Bye

Pier

P.S.: Sorry for my english
