INSERT INTO OPENQUERY (MYSQL, ‘SELECT * FROM MySQL_Table’)
SELECT * FROM MS_SQL_Server_Table
GO

The insert works fine except that any MONEY type will be multiplied by 10,000 in the MySQL table

the tables are identical except that it is a DECIMAL (19,4) type.

Has any one had this problem and fixed it

1. originally i had added a USER DSN. So i deleted the USER DSN and added a SYSTEM DSN with a simple name (no punctuation) like S008

2. i had to download and install the “Microsoft OLE DB Provider for ODBC” because it was not available on my w2003 x64 server. See ms

then it worked as described above.

thanks!

insert into openquery(mysqlserver,’select * From tablename’) values (value1,value2….)

for your case it will be like:

insert into openquery(mysql_linked_server1,’select * From table1′) select * from openquery(mysql_linked_server2, ’select * from table2′)

Let us know if it works.

Thanks

I have recently setup a pair of linked MySQL servers, each on a different computer. Not being entirely familiar with MySQL, I noticed that you mentioned I cannot use 4part naming to access the tables. The problem I am having is that I need to run Insert into svr1.db1.schema1.tbl SELECT * from svr2.db1.schema1.tbl and I am not sure how to effect this. Would you be able to provide some assistance? I would really appreciate any suggestions to resolve this. As a side note, what I am attempting to do is create a stored procedure or some method to backup one MySQL database to another, and my knowledge of the MySQL interfaces is almost nonexistant.

Thanks,
Geoff Sutton
