This is just to let you know, that development version 0.92 works with 
Azure SQL. There seems to be very little information about this in The 
Net, so I thought to share my FreeTDS experiment with the community.

Looks like most people don't use the Azure SQL -service, but run their 
own DB in a separate virtual machine. That way you have full control on 
DB-access, but in this case I chose to use the in-house SQL. I even used 
PHP PDO with dblib from an Azure virtual machine and everything was ok. 
The only real issue I had was to use one of the newest TDS-versions 
FreeTDS has. For example TDS 4.0 and 5.0 won't work.
