Hi there,

This patch allows the user to specify a target database on freebcp command
line. This is especially useful when accessing SQL Azure, which always
returns a connection to a system database.

The patch is here:
https://github.com/tonyjiang/freetds/commit/4d50f8835f584b042fabe42510f1cede24e5d938

It'd be great if you can merge it into freebcp.

Cheers,
Tony

Thanks for the patch, on official master branch we have a similar patch:

http://gitorious.org/freetds/freetds/commit/c34afafd2fec4cbba9b245e4f13a5471c6fb8041

Do you think we should backport it on 0.91branch? Usually we do not
backport new feature on stable branch but this seems quite safe to me.

James fixed the snapshot generation a week ago so snapshots have this patch.

Regards,
Frediano
