DDL file to convert from mySQL to SQLServerXXX

We want to migrate a mySQL database to sql server 2000 or sql Server 2005. I have been given a DDL file to perform the conversion, but I don't know what to do with the file? Can anyone help me out? From what I can conclude, the DDL files is a script. So how do I run this script? Where do I place the file, before I run it?

Please help !

IF its a small file (with few tables/storedprocs/views..etc) I would go through the script to check for syntax errors. You could even to a "syntax check" from the query analyzer of SQL Server. Get the script fixed if there are any issues. Then create a database on SQL Server and compile the scripts against the DB.I believe there are SQL Server upgrade/migrate advisors. you can always google and check out any tips.|||
