Converting mysql to SQLite

[Bill]

I found a perl program called "SQL - translator" which you can down load
from:

http://sqlfairy.sourceforge.net/

It is supposed to help translate MySql to SQLite but it is a PERL program
that has to be compiled (which I've never done before on OSX). I was hoping
for an easy way to just make a complete dump of MySQL and then make a direct
import of that dump into SQLite but it looks like there are some differences
so the translator is necessary. Maybe with REV's text abilities we could
make a translator in your demo stack? The demo stack needs all those SQL
utilities you find in the many programs that are available for MySQL like
CocoaMySQL and YourSQL.

That is great news to hear that Jan is working with you on Quartam reports
compatibility.
