Using workbench to connect to SQL server on management studio

I have been trying to connect to the server on Microsoft SQL Management Studio using Workbench via an IP.
But I cannot seem to connect whatsoever, is workbench even supported with Database engine servers.
I am connecting with the root username, could that be the problem too?
If you are referring to MySQL Workbench and SQL Server, MySQL is a visualization tools for MySQL Server and databases. You cannot access other servers with it. SSMS or SQL Server Management studio is the visualization tool for SQL Server databases. These both databases use almost similar syntax and structure but are totally different entities in terms of Parent Company and access.
In Layman's terms, when you try to enter an IP in Workbench, it tries to find and access a MySQL Server but doesn't find it and hence does not connect. It is not a SSH Client which connects to any server specified.
There is one way to connect SQL Server from MySQL Workbench and that is database miration.
Find More Information Here:
I recommend SQL Server Management Studio for SQL Server Access and visualization.
For connecting to SQL Server using Python, consider PyODBC (preferred) or pymssql as documented here

Migrate some data from MySQL to MSSQL

I have a MySQL database.
I need to migrate some (not all) table's data (data records) from MySQL to MSSQL database, herewith convert structure of MySQL tables to new structure in MSSQL.
In future, I need to do automatic periodical synchronization between these databases.
Is there any tools? or I have to use some SQL proc's or queries? How can I do these things?
For reference: I'm using MSSQL Server 2008 R2 with ODBC driver for MySQL and SQL Migration Assistant for MySQL (with these tools, I have been fully converted MySQL to MSSQL database only).
Since you already have full SQL 2008, open the Visual Studio Intelligence BI installed with your SQL installation.
Then create a new project "Integration Services Project".
Therefor you create a new connection to your ODBC (should be wizards available).
Then add your tables, there you can modify, convert, tranasform the data.
The complete project you can save and add as sheduled task to your sql server agent.
Here is a tutorial which explains more: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms169917.aspx

When you can do is upside your data from access to SQL (you can even use one of the free expression editions). You then can script out the whole database, or pull the data from sql server into your version of SQL lite.

MySQL dump to SQL Server 2008 R2

I recently redid a project for my company, and have to convert existing MySQL data to a SLQ Server 2008 R2 database.
I have a dump script from the old MySQL database, but it contains a helluva lot of data.
I was wondering if there are any solutions out there to feed the dump file to, and receive a SQL Server 2008 R2 script.
