Hi folks,

Does anyone know if it is possible to import a SyBase (adt, adi, adm) database into SQL Server and what the requirements may be?

Thanks!

you want to import db as a whole or just some data from it?

I'm not totally clear on how to proceed. First, by SSIS, I suppose that you mean SQL Server Import & Export Wizard. If so, what type of data source would I select? Do I need a particular ODBC driver or something?
