Heh.

So, I was rescuing an MS Access application that imperfectly synched from a MySQL instance powering the Rails app from which it got data, that had been exported to MS SQL that was running (surprisingly well) inside a Windows XP VM I was accessing via Remote Desktop Connection.

So: I have no idea. I totally forget. It was some really-complicated-looking MS tool that allowed me to look at the table row by row and run some queries :). The guy I was working for set it up; my excuse is I stopped using windows back in 2004.
