OK, cool.  So...I'm trying to get MS SQL Server 2008 running right
this second in my Windows XP virtual machine.  Running into
problems...no biggie, just gotta RTFM on how it's security settings
work.

But are there any FOSS tools available that'll take apart these
databases I have now?

Thanks!

Jim
