We need to redo a database in MySQL that has been already done on Informix, is there a way to migrate not only the schema, but the stored procedures as well?

Thanks.

We have a client whom we built a web application that uses an Informix database. Now the client wants to be able to implement the same software but on multiple closed networks (like 20). Doing this using Informix would be very expensive (20 licences X_X).

So the best approach is to redo the database on something like MySQL.

The application was done using Flex, .Net (using ODBC) and Informix.
