All I want for Christmas is...

HeidiSQL 3.0 final :lol:

Keep up the good work HeidiSQL team.

Why I like HeidiSQl:

1. Its power to weight ratio is amazing. (for less than 2MB its punching above its weight)
2. GUI is simple & intuitive
3. Its stable & fast
4. Where point 3 doesn't hold, its quick and easy to kill.
5. Point 3 is improving constantly.
6. Its free.

HeidiSQL brings a smile to my face every time I open it up .. like this :D

Hallo,
Nutze schon seit ein paar Jahren MySQL-Front.
Mit dem upgrade auf 4.1 MySQL bei meinem Provider begannen die Probleme.
Habe dann aber Heidi gefunden!happy
Was mir noch fehlt, ist ein Konverter von access --> MySQL, also der
ODBC-Import vom MySQL-Front.
Habe mir gerade den Intelligent Converter von convert-in.com gekauft.
Leider interpretiert er die ja/nein Felder nicht als ENUM ('True','False') sondern als TINYINT(4) und alle Datenbankabfragen funktionieren nicht mehr! :cry:

The ODBC-import tool from MySQL-Front 2.5 has been completely nuked as there were too many bugs in it, and we had several problems with dataloss and identification of datatypes. The import-tool has not been rewritten yet for the RC4.

But I can give away some other secrets which will be in RC4:
- a SQL-Help window which is context-sensual on keywords written in the Query-tab
- completion-proposal in the Query-tab, including SQL keywords, functions, tablenames and columnnames
- a new list containing command-statistics
- a simple snippet-management.

these 4 new things are only a small fragment of a huge changelog... :D

Is there any way to make a connection by MySQL-Front with MySQL 4.1, only for ODBC Import? I never had problems with bugs by ODBC-Import.

When I start MySQL-Front, I get information, that I must make update. :?

The only small bug with Heidi, wich I have, is, that she is standing on end, when she is ready, and does

In MySQL-Front 2.5 there was a menu-item in Import/Export called ODBC-Import. Click on it and you will be asked for a source-database (ODBC-DSN or MS-Access file). Then MySQL-Front 2.5 will try to detect all column-types, defaults and other properties. The latter thing is kind of buggy if I rememeber correctly. But you should try it. :)

Ah, and thx a lot for the donation! :)

As most of them the last one was done anonymously, so I can only assume the last one was from you?

In deed, it was. smile

But my problem is the connect with MySQL-Front to MySQL 4.1

After Update by my provider, I skip the 3. MySQL maschine an also upgrade at 4.1
Now I get no connection when I start MySQL-Front. The answer is:
"Connection failed.
1251 - Client does not support authentification protocol requested by server; consider upgrading MySQL client."

and without connection I can`t use ODBC import.

ok, understand: You have a 4.1+ server and want to use MySQL-Front 2.5. But I have no clue how to solve this. Maybe you can use some other tool for importing from Access?
[expired user #625]'s profile image [expired user #625] posted 18 years ago Permalink
from support convert-in.com I get the answer that it still convert MS Access true/false into MySQL 1/0 because it is the most proper conversion.
So I change the fields Yes / No in Access in text and with search/"ersetzen" No to False an Yes to True my problem is not more exist.

But Access-to-MySQL is verry slowly, what the ODBC Convert from MySQL-Front done in 30 sec., the new tool need over 5 min.

Try to reset the password to "pre-4.1", see: http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/old-client.html

HeidiSQL 3.0 final :lol:

Really appreciate RC4 just before Christmas and now V3 Final happy

I've just downloaded this latest version, and the speed is starting to look more like MysqlFront2.5.

I love the fact that exporting to a different server is now working. It has already come in handy... showing it off to one of my colleagues.

I will be looking forward to exploring new features in the coming days.

Thanks again!
