[wp-hackers] Querying MicroSoft SQL server from within WordPress

[Haluk Karamete]

What's the most recommended way to query MS-SQL from WordPress?

I'd like to use the WordPress Database API's and the available functions as
much as I can. Does the current codebase ( 3.9with the myqli ) support
this?

Or do I need to write my own code using PDO?
In my theme, I need to query MSSQL and display the results within a page.
That's what I'm up against.
