    Restore Mssql bak file to Mysql 5.1 database

    Currently, I am having a backup file of MSSQL server 2005 database. I want to restore the backup file(of MS Sql server 2005) to MYSQL database.

    Please Note: I don't have MS sql server 2005 database.

    How can I do it?

      As you can tell, those are different DBMSs with different syntax for their table definitions.

          My suggestion would be to set up a MSSQL database, restore the backup there, export the data into a CSV file and load that into MySQL.

          No good can come from trying to use a file formatted by a Microsoft product for anything other than what is was made for... even another Microsoft product.
