Hello people, I wish to migrate from an old forum ( www.skyportal.net/ ) in asp and access that handles the date format of the varchar 20041014210729 Kunena int (11) 1190342548? that format is and how can I migrate it?
I have a friend who helped me with the script migracion but we stayed with the date format.
Any ideas for moving forward?

G'day MDQdam. That's an interesting idea. You state that your MS SQL "dates" are of type varchar and not as type datetime. It should be possible to convert them into MySQL type int(11).

I would investigate dumping your part-converted MS SQL database into an Excel spreadsheet and work on a method to change the date/time strings into MySQL's date format. You should then be able to put the data back into a form that is suitable for importing into your MySQL database. That's the theory.

There are also commercially-available packages to convert MS SQL databases into MySQL.

Thanks sozzled for your interest in my problem.
My friend does not dominate MySQL.
Then copy the fields of Kunena on Access.
Then place this script to migrate data.
It worked OK.
But with value 0 in the (Time).
