I’m converting web application written in ASP into PHP that will be using MySQL.

I’m converting web application written in ASP into PHP that will be using MySQL. I have a SQL Server database with two files (.MDF and .LDF) I want to convert into CSV file but I am having trouble finding the right tool to do the job. I found that some people are suggesting SQL Server Express. I tried it but couldn’t figure out how to load database from file and use it. I also tried to use opendbcopy but when trying to open a file it doesn’t show it in the file pane.

    If you install SQL Server Express, you can load the image file using the Attach Database functionality in the SQL Server Management Studio (the management UI).

    Then you can view and work with the database directly from Management Studio, where you can export the file to CSV by right-clicking the database name and selecting Tasks->Export Data.
