My need is to move the MYSQL 5.0 database from my development m/c to actual production m/c,
How I can do this ???
On production m/c MYSQL is not installed, MY SQL 3.5 drivers are present.
but on my m/c MYSQL 5.0 and MYSQLDrivers 5.0 are resent so will on production server 3.5 driver will support 5.0 vertion...If I created DSN with 3.5 will it support database of 5.0?
Thanks
First step would be to install MySQL on the production server. If it's not, then there's no point in doing the migration, is there?
v3.5 drivers should be able to talk to a 5.x database, though you'll probably have some trouble. 3.x is positively stone age these days. Unless you have no control over the production server, there shouldn't be any reason to NOT upgrade to a 5.0/5.1 server and driver set.

Upgrading the database version needs intensive testing.
Is it better to upgrade to latest version of MySQL workbench?
If we are installing previous versions of MySQL database, Is there any certification matrix to know all the corresponding version of MySQL workbench or what minimum version it can work with?
Mysql-Workbench using libmysql.dll. You must update this dll from your mysql\lib folder. So a lot function working same as before.
I am using latest version of workbench The available MySQL version is 5.0.27. Does anybody knows how to update MySQL version?
MySQL Workbench is a client tool that uses an existing server. Both have their own version numbers. The current GA (generally available) version of MySQL Workbench is 6.2.5. For the server there are obviously different versions. You don't need to consider WB when upgrading. Just upgrade your server and WB will happily work with it.
Update
Meanwhile the MySQL group switched to a unique versioning scheme, where all products have the same version number, to indicate which release of a tool works best with which server (e.g. MEB 8.0.15 with MySQL 8.0.15 or MySQL Workbench 8.0.16 with the same versioned server). It makes sense to update all components at the same time to ensure maximum compatibility.
I am running MySQL Workbench on Ubuntu 12.04. MySQL workbench cannot use FreeTDS for migration of MSSQL 2000 to MYSQL, it wants to use iODBC. I cannot find a deb/ubuntu MS SQL 2000 ODBC connector that I can use with iODBC.
All the documentation assumes you are running MySQL Workbench under Windows. I tried that, but had too many issues. Based on 3 days to googeling, trial and error, I think it will work better with MySQL Workbench running the migration from Ubunto instead of Windows.
Does anyone know of an ODBC driver for Ubuntu that will work with MySQL Workbench/iODBC?
Thanks!

To clarify: iODBC is NOT a driver, is a driver manager. FreeTDS is a driver and you need both to use migration wizard. All detailed instructions how to setup you can find in link below:

The MySQL migration forum contains a number of sticky links to various resources that may help you with your task.

the company i work for is considering for multiple reasons (some of them libked to the politics of open source and oracle) a switch from MySQL to Mariadb. Our development team has been using Zend Server (now it's 6th version) which always install mysql. Is it possible to switch from mySQl to Mariadb smoothly? are there any hurdles that we should be aware of ahead of time? The OS for every development computer is Ubuntu 13.04 at this point.
No, there should be no more issues than when upgrading to a new MySQL version.

Your server version is just not supported:
MySQL Workbench fully supports MySQL Server versions 5.1 and above. It
is also compatible with MySQL Server 5.0, but not every feature of 5.0
may be supported. It does not support MySQL Server versions 4.x.
Sadly, MySQL 3.23 is almost 12 years old.
