I have a MySQL database, I need to have an Excel-like front-end so that the system administrator can import Excel/CSV files directly into the database.
I used to use Navicat, but there was some problem with doing this. Is there any freeware that has the same functionality?
Thanks!
I use also Navicat for MySQL and frankly I do not experience problems importing/exporting Excel/CSV data...
Anyway, you can try HeidiSQL, MySQL-Front or DevArt MySQL Studio...

Good day, I'm currently new in working with databases. I downloaded an application called MySql Worckbench 5.2 CE because I saw that it has an easy way of creating and accessing databases. I'm now in the process of exporting the .sql. Whenever I go to the export tab which looks like this:
After I click on Start Export, it gives me this error:
I'm not sure what the error is cause I'm not familiar with MySql dump.. is there a way to resolve this? or use an alternative way. I'm also not familiar with using mysql from cmd (Windows) but if there is any suggestion or steps I can follow, it would be a great help.
Great and simple tutorial for MySQL Workbench.

Check out the Generating SQL section.
Still facing problem. ↓↓↓
Try installing MySQL Workbench on-default Windows directory.
I recommend using PhpMyAdmin
http://www.phpmyadmin.net/home_page/index.php
OR navicat? (not free)
or you can use Sequel Pro for mac (free)
I have a relatively large database in SQL Server 2008R2 that I need to export to MySql. I tried the "Import and Export Data" option for SQL Server but it provides no option for exporting to MySQL
Please assist with the possible way on how to achieve this.
There's an open source application at sourceforge named MSSQL2MySQL that might work for you.
If I was you. I would have gone for Navicat
Its a brilliant software and a very simple UI to import and export data within different types of server
Cheers!!
I have sql developer that I can use to connect to oracle database. But I want to connect to mysql databse. Any free good tool avaialble?
You can try SQLyog which has 30-day trial and also community version. Difference between many free tools and SQLyog are actually SQLyog has many advanced features like Database sync, Schema sync, Import external data, data search etc..
Note that these are available only in Ultimate and Enterprise versions.
I think that you can use http://www.mysql.com/products/workbench/ or http://www.heidisql.com/. Both of them are very good, Workbench is especially good for database schema design.
Download SQLYog. I am using it for years.
There are several tools for this, for example:
mySQL Workbench
mySQL Administrator
or, if you want one that can work with other databases too, you could try:
Heidi SQL
SquirrelSQL
I have a somewhat small database in SQL Server Express 2005 that I really need to migrate over to a MySQL install on my hosting service (Dreamhost). After reading for a couple days, everything pointed to the MySQL Migration Toolkit, which is unfortunately EOL. I was able to find an archive and install it on my server running Sql Server. I set the source database, and set my Dreamhost MySQL as the destination. For whatever reason I get tons of permission errors trying to migrate although the user I'm connecting to MySQL as full permissions (working with dreamhost on this).
Is there a better way to do this? I've heard that I should use some third party tools, (like dbtools) and then I heard NOT to use third party tools.
Like I said the database is small, with a few views, a few functions, and a few stored procs, which I can manually move over if needed.
What are my options? Thank you!
Export your SQL Server database to a downloadable package (SSIS?)
Install SQL Server Express locally.
Install MySQL locally.
Run the Migration Toolkit locally.
Dump the MySQL database
Upload and run the Dump file # DreamHost (via phpMyAdmin if possible).
For such a small database you may spend more time trying to get a 3rd party tool to work for your situation than it would take you to just move the stuff manually. If you used standard SQL and little to nothing proprietary to SQL Server, creating the objects manually in MySQL should be easy enough... you just have to be aware of the slight syntax differences between the two platforms. Once the structures are created, generating insert statements to populate the data should also be trivial.
I have 2 databases, one is MS Access DB from an old website, and the other one is MYSQL from the new Joomla+VirtueMart based website.
I need to migrate existing products from MS Access to MYSQL.
I thought of putting both on server and writing SQL queries in MYSQL workbench, untill I have a good script for that, but I'm very new to SQL, so I'd rather avoid that.
I there a better way and more efficient for that?
You can always export to CSV and import that in MySQL.
you can use tools like Database Workbench
MySQL provides a free graphical tool called "MySQL Migration toolkit" which automates the migration of Access 2003 MDB files (schema + data) into MySQL.
