How to import a MS SQL server table into mysql?

I need to export about 300,000 rows from a table on MS SQL server and import into mysql on a different server (non windows). There is some text stored in some fields and commas in the text will mess up the format if I export into txt format.

I can't install any software on the server.

You may have several options:

  • use SSIS or DTS Wizard on another host to interconnect MSSQL and MySQL
  • write your own small app to move the data
  • script the MSSQL DB's DATA into script file with SSMS' scripting features, adopt the script manually to mysql and run it

I'm pretty sure you can connect to MySQL from SSIS. I'd go down that route.
