Hi all

I am really new to Hibernate and I have only read the documentation and some articles in onjava.com. I think it is a really great O/R mapping tool and really want to have a try. And want to hear some advices and suggestions from the more experienced developers.

I want to use Hibernate in my existing application, which the database's table has already defined and contain data. I want to experienmentally use Hibernate for a few related tables and plan to gradually reimplement the whole DL if it suits our application. However, I am not really sure where to start or the best place to start with. Since, all articles seems to talk about building a new application with Hibernate. I am using MS SQL and it can export the sql script that create the table and I am wondering if there is any tool that can change the ms sql script into the Hibernate O/R mapping files?

Thanks for any suggestions!

Cheers
