Re: Porting from MS SQL Server to PostGres

Given the "fun" I've had with Sql*Server and it's sister Access, you'd be much better off porting things manually. I'd precreate all of the tables/indexes and then move the data with the aid of Access or a similar ODBC tool. As for the rest, re-write it as Tsql is more like VB than pgplsql.

Subject: [ADMIN] Porting from MS SQL Server to PostGres

Hi,

I'm looking for details, or tools about porting a full Ms Sql Server
2000 database to Postgres on Linux.

Is this possible? We have the whole nine yards, stored procedures,
triggers, and all.

Is there a way to automate this process?

Thanks
