Try these links (and / or search for info on these tools):
  http://www.freetds.org/
  http://www.unixodbc.org/
  http://support.apple.com/downloads/ODBC_Administrator_Tool_for_Mac_OS_X

Running an ODBC driver allows for connecting to a REMOTE instance of MS 
SQL.How will this help the OP build and run MS SQL on MacOS X?  AFAIK, 
that can't happen as MS SQL won't run on MacOS X.  Period.  Best they 
can do is run it in Fusion/Parallels under a Windows container.  Don't 
know if MacOS X would be able to connect to that virtual machine, 
however.

I would like to tell Storable that it should ignore tied information
when freezing hashref (Data::Dumper seems better in such situation).
