HI there:

I am about to transfer to a host that has no Access database, only MySQL. I have two choices, abandon the Web Wiz forums, or transfer the data they have acquired to a new databse. Has anyone tried to transfer their Web Wiz Access database to a MySql database?

Thanks.

this has been done by a couple people but not offically from WebWiz

you will also have to change a couple parts within the asp code to reflect the different database limitations etc.

This is just a suggestion. Try contacting your new host and ask if they can do the upgrade for you. Some hosting companies will do it for you for a minimal fee.
