I've never performed a Sybase -> SQL conversion, but I can inform you that
MS developed a Sybase->SQL Server migration kit / resource kit which is
available for download from the MS site if you're a MSDN subscriber. The
download is approx 570Mb in total but is was released on CD at one point.

|||We recently migrated our product from Sybase ASA to SQL 2000.
Most of our major rewrites were due:
1. Triggers work very differently. There are no row-level triggers in MSS
2. Functions cannot be invoked from procedures in MSS.
Most of the other issues were related to syntatical differences.

|||I really appreciate your response.
I would like to know how to make/change table owner from 'dbo' to
'julia' for all tables? I only know to use sp_changeobject_ownner to
change one table each time.

command.
If you post this on microsoft.public.sqlserver.programming you will get a
better response. Most of the SQL Gurus reside there.
Anyway back to your question, I would try to write a small script that would
loop through sysobjects table to get all the tablenames using a cursor and
run sp_changeobjectowner on it.
BTW, In my previous post I said functions cannot be invoked from procedures.
Its the other way around. Procedures cannot be invoked from functions. Sorry
for the typo.
