Description:
mysql: 5 version 16
MT: 1.0.21-rc
MSSQL: 2000, svc pak 4

I was working with with MT 1.0.18-rc and was able to connect to mssql without problems. 

I installed version 21 because it resolves a problem related to FLOAT fields being converted to DOUBLE fields during conversion from mssql to mysql.

The new version installed without problem. When I run MT and attempt to connect to same database as previously, a mssql database on the local server, MT just hangs. There are no messages. MT is "not responding" and I then exit the program.

Specifically, if I click the [...] box, MT hangs. If I DON'T do that and just type in the name of the database, the connection succeeds.

How to repeat:
Start MT, start a new connection to an mssql database. Click on [...]. MT hangs.
