A few years back I ported the Transact SQL stored procedure code for my company's application from Sybase 11.5 to SQL Server 7. There is some divergence between the launguages so the task was not trivial. The names of some of the built-in variables are different. Our application uses cursors extensively and the variable which checks for the cursor being finished is @@fetch_status in SQL Server and is @@sqlstatus in Sybase. They also return a different set of values so I had to go change all of places where cursors were used. There are also subtle differences in the way that cursors work that caused me to have to rewrite some of this code. There were other small things I had to change that I cannot remember. In short, don't count on your stored procedures from SQL Server to just load up and run in Sybase unless they are very simple.
