M$ SQL to MySQL export/import

[alanv72]

I have search for days on this issue have tried to use several different suggestions, but nothing seems to work. I tried using the DTS in the M$ SQL, but it gives me an error on two of the tables. "Query-based insertion or updating of BLOB values is not supported."

Any body have a working solution?

well, I don't really know the answer but what I normally do with error messages is look through G groups

try this search [groups.google.com]

What is the blob data that you are trying to move?

[alanv72]

it is a text column type. It stores the data for a vector drawing.

Here is a real example of one of the records in the field..

AACU16R14U10R30D26L44
ABR10CR18*6
ACU16CU10*14

BTW.. Does anybody know how to draw that using PHP?

[jatar_k]

as far as php drawing goes there is PHP image functions [ca.php.net] but nothing specifically references vector drawing.
