Check out WinSql (http://www.synametrics.com/SynametricsWebApp/WinSQL.jsp) It has the ability to extract data from Sql*Sucker and drop it into PostGreSql, and you can have that functionality free for 90 days to boot. -----Original Message----- From: pgsql-admin-owner@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:pgsql-admin-owner@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of josh@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Tuesday, August 09, 2005 8:37 AM To: pgsql-admin@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [ADMIN] SQL Server 2000 to PostgreSQL 8.0.3 Greetings. I am having difficulty moving a SQL Server 2000 database over to PostgreSQL 8.0.3. In SQL Server, I am performing a backup of the database I want to move. I save that backup on my Desktop. I am then opening up PGAdminIII and attempting to perform a Restore of the database saved on my Desktop. The first step I take is to create a new database, MyDB. Next, I highlight my new database and then select Restore from the Tools menu. The Restore Database window pops up and I Browse to the database backup I've saved on my Desktop. After selecting the backup, the 'OK' button stays grayed and I am unable to proceed. Any ideas as to how I can work around this? Thanks in advance.
