Thanks Gheist.
I wanted something with fewer problems, fancy GUI not neccessary.
I think that's what I needed. Rninja

I've done it by hand - set up 2 ODBC sources set up data types, structure and references (actual migration), made a small perl script which appended select * from real tables

ok slow - but you learn many new functionality og your future database

i believe web is full of automated tools to acomplish this faster/better/politically correct/cost-effectively etc

MySQL Crash-me gives you a clue which types of data need to be changed
