      it seems i can connect with MySQL ODBC 3.51 Driver but not

      Microsoft SQL Server ODBC Driver Version 03.70.0961

      Running connectivity tests…

      Attempting connection

      [Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][TCP/IP Sockets]General network error. Check your network documentation.

      TESTS FAILED!

      how does this part work???

      thanks in advance…besides this this software should be a breeze….i love it…

      To connect to a MYSQL database you must use one of the connection tools provided by MYSQL !! Primarly the Mysql ODBC-driver or Mysql JDBC-driver! A driver for MS-SQL-Server won't work with MYSQL!

      You can however also connect from programming languages like php, perl, c etc.

      Hi,

      thank you for your prompt response…I can connect to mysql…with no problems…however, i can't import with my ODBC import wizard…my 3.51 ODBC driver works and connects…but i think the import requires the SQL Server ODBC driver (which can't connect when i configure it for PUBS)….i connected mysql with php no problem…i just need the SQL Server to connect to import my insert documents…please…any ideas…

      I guess the problem is importing insert documents for my tables….and i can't do that with the sqlyog enterprise….edition…thanks in advance…

      You must explain more in detail what you are trying to do !! We can't read thoughts 🙂

      Do you want to import TO MYsql FROM MS-SQL-Server ?? If yes, then you of course need to configure an MS-SQL-ODBC instance for the MS-SQL DB using Windows' “administrative tools” and give it a name. From the “ODBC import wizard” in sqlyog choose that name to import from.

      I don't have access to a MS-SQL server, so if there is any specific problem in that I can't help, but those are the basic principles. Sqlyog does not use an ODBC driver to access (neither read or write) a MySQL database (it uses the “native” C -interface/API built into MySQL Server executables).

      lets put it this way….i need to import from a text file to mysql table called employees_data ….how do you do this with SQLyog enterprise edition? The help files don't seem to help….thanks….

      To import to MySQL with sqlyog from a text file you don't use ODBC all all.

      From Table .. export/import .. import table data .. import from CSV.

      A .csv is basically a semicolon-delimitted text-file.

      This is a sample generated with MS Excel (four cells with string content (first row) “d”,”d” (second row)”a” and “s”

      (start)

      d;d

      a;s

      (end)
