Sure you can you just have to set up all the connections and configure the database yourself.

This forum WILL NOT RUN off MySQL. All the SQL Query's would have to be rewriten. TRUST ME.
Even do a search for it. Even the creater, -BoRg-, has said it wont work.

Trust me, you can, I got it to run for a client's intranet with version 6.x and 7 is not that much different. It's not that difficult.

most of the SQL statements would have to be changed for it to work right. Its not 100% MySQL compatiable, there for, IT WILL NOT WORK.

I'm not going to argue with you, MadDog, if anyone wants assistance with setting up a MySQL version of WWF, just PM me as I have done it. It's not easy, but it is possible.

so I take it, converting my access dbase to MySql would be a NO??? or assuming ljamal is right, data would have to be transfered manually or would I just have to start over?
