I went through the same experience as OP. Looking back, I don’t think I would change my approach.Īs I didn’t find any more recent posts regarding this issue, I’ll post here. I actually accomplished this using Firebird server as an intermediary. It appears in using your method, at least in my systems, I would have a lot more work in completing the effort.Īfter doing this three times (three different conversions) the only issue was getting correct data to Firebird embedded as there were some problems with numeric & decimal info. I found the number of changes needed in the forms (even though they may have contained a number of sub forms) to be inconsequential. There are also at least a few thousand lines of macro coding which had minimal effect when moved. The major system transferred was for personal finances with a few dozen forms, and almost as many tables and queries. I have successfully moved & tested all tables/forms/queries & such to PostgreSQL, Firebird server and Firebird embedded. This year I have decided, for a number of reasons, to move away from MySQL/MariaDB. PostgreSQL, for example, also has separate databases). I personally prefer to keep the Schema as is ( in MySQL there are no separate databases, only schema.
