Nov 9, 2011I have upsized from Access 2003 to SQL Server 2008 R2 using upsizing wizard. Everything works fine. But I don't see relationship in SQL SErver 2008 R2 if I go to database. But I set relationship in Access 2003 before upsizing it.
Amso I don't see relationship (diagram) in Access 2003 , which I was able to see before.
So do I need to again recreate the relationship amongst the table in Access 2003 Or SQL SErver 2008 R2 ? I thought, if you link tables, everything should be taken care but i don't see relationship structure any more.
Autonumber Has Skipped A Number- Why?
Jan 19, 2006I have a an 'Orders' table that records order details which has the order number field set as an autonumber. I also have a number of other tables which provide additional details for each particular order (eg Address details, invoice history etc) These each have a 1 to 1 relationship with the 'Orders' table. This has all been working fine for some time but having just added a new order the order number has jump from 10135 to 10137! For some reason it missed out 10136.
Any ideas why and what I need to do? If I create a new table based on the structure of the existing one then append the records to it won't I still have the same problem?
Thanks
Upsizing
Mar 5, 2007I have a MS Access 2003 database that is getting corrupted frequently. I am following all the rules to avoid this problem but it keeps boring me with "Access can´t recognize this database format" and I lose all my data.
I´ve sent the db to experts to try to recover it and they told me that it was impossible. So, I´m planning to change my Backend (BE) and keep my Access Frontend (FE), because I like Access very much.
My question: what is the best solution for BE?
SQL Server? Firebird? another one?
I hope by changing the BE I won´t have problems anymore...
Thanks in advance

Advice On Upsizing To SQL
Sep 25, 2005Would anyone be willing to have a discussion about upsizing a large split database to SQL? I've managed the split using the wizard and it went very well. The problem is the performance, the form is really slow on opening and as it scrolls through records.
All my queries are saved. I would imagine it's the way I've built the form and base queries that's causing the problem and wondered if anyone would be willing to have a look at it for me and see if they can make any suggestions.
I'm struggling blind with this one.
Thanks.

Jul 27, 2007Ok......
It's much as I thought it would be. MS Access is limited for a mid size database application. I have developed this mid size database for the medical clinic I work for. I didn't want to do it, but they saw some of my personal projects I created and pretty much told me to come up with something.
Well, the good news is, the database itself works exactly as designed, meaning it does its job very well. The bad news, and I knew it would happen, is instability. When I first started creating this program, I had no idea how many people would be using it at once. That, and after reading through these forums for the last few months, I realized that Access wasn't the puppy to be creating this database in. As it stands, about 130 - 150 systems access the database (about 3 times more than I originally forcasted.)
I'm sure those of you who have done something similar knows the next thing I'm about to say...... yep..... mysterious run-time errors - locked database from time to time - owc (office web component) errors...... etc. etc. These errors pretty much happen during peak hours.
I am pretty positive it's because access wasn't designed to handle such a load..... which led me to a researching a resolution. The answer that may be my savior is the upsizing wizard included with ms access. We do have MS SQL server running on a server...... I was just curious if anybody's ever used the upsizing wizard; either that, or has anyone ported an access project to sql. (This is a big program, and would hate to have to reprogram)

Upsizing Access Question
Jun 30, 2007Greetings:
I have been using front-end back-end database, which consists of three .mde files connected to an .mdb backend on a Windows Server 2003 Windows XP Professional network. The database is a flat-file. Because of problems associated with record corruption, related to multiple users and memo fields, I am looking to upsize my backend to MySQL or SQL Server both of which I know little about. Additionally I am hoping that upsizing will help alleviate the slowing down I am currently experiencing as the back end grows.
My question is am I looking in the right direction will either of these correct my problems and if so which of the two should I use.

Access App Kills SQL SERVER After Upsizing
Aug 11, 2005HI.
Your help is very appreciated.
*I upsized ACCESS 2002 (tables only) to use SQL SERVER 7.0 as backend.
(linked tables).
* Almost all the ACCESS forms are bound type forms.
Now, I have two problems:
1. Other applications (not ACCESS ones) that use different dbs on the same SQL SERVER , are slowed down / halted.
2. My SQL SERVER license is limited to 8 "user counts". When there are 8 instances of the ACCESS app, any additional connection request is refused (from any app).
(I can't afford buying more "user counts").
I suspect that beacuse the forms are bound, it hold connection open as long as the form is used.
Also, each ACCESS app instance, opens its own connection.
The solution that I see, is to use unbound forms(disconnected), and opening the connection in code using connection pooling.
Would you recommend on this solution?
do you have any suggestions?
Thanks a lot

Victim Of It's Own Success; Upsizing Question
Mar 20, 2006Hi,
I have developed a couple of database applications. This started as a small thing but now is growing to the point where I've got to make some decisions and would appreciate some guidance.
Presently:
Front end: 4 Different GUI's as local front ends.
Back end: Intranet network share on Win2k desktop (limited by O/S to 10 connections at one time)
Going forward, about 30 users will have access to the front ends and will all need concurrent access to the back end data. At some point, I would like to generate web pages from the data in the back end database and have the back end machine also be the web server for this.
So, what are my "best" options for the back end?
I was thinking of getting Win 2k3 Server running SQL server to drive the database.
The ability to integrate security with existing infrastructure would definitely be a plus, which I believe Win 2k3 can do.
I don't know very much about Win 2k3 or SQL server, but am willing to invest in learning the ins and outs as long as I can get it up and running with the same functionality I have now (with relative ease) and scale it as my capabilities with the OS and SQL server increase.
To be honest though, I am a little scared about how much I'll have to change my existing applications in order to make it work.
Your suggestions, comments, experiences most welcome and valued.
Thanks,
Al
Upsizing Creates Huge MSSQL
Feb 1, 2005I am upgrading a .mdb to MSSQL. The .mdb is 17MB, but the resulting MSSQL is 72MB. Tried using both the Access Upsizing Wizard and Enterprise Manager DTS. I have done this a number of times before, but never ran into this problem. Any ideas what coule be going on, and how to fix it?
View 1 Replies View RelatedDatabase Size Limited To 2GB / Query Multiple Database Without Linking Tables?
Sep 7, 2011I'm trying to set up a simple query that links four tables. However, the tables are extremely large, all in excess of 1.5GB each so I had to split the tables up into four separate DBs. I've tried the following with no success:
1) Link the 4 tables in the DB which contains my primary key. This quickly inflates increases the file size above 2GB and won't let me go any further.
2) Build a remote query to connect the four tables. This looked promising until I tried to run the query and it became evident that it only knows to point to the last database source that you specified.
I'm running everything locally on my C drive. The data source are simple text files (1.6 million rows) from the FDA website.
Tables :: Two Identical Database - Importing Tables By Linking To Data Source
Dec 3, 2012I have 2 identical database in terms of structure but it differs in data.
Basically I would like to import data from subDatabase to mainDatabase and ensuring that there are no duplicate records.
I have used the "link to datasource method" through importing the tables to have the "updating" function.
However, this method also means that the records in mainDatabase are also imported over to subDatabase which I do not want.
Is there a method to ensure that the records are shared/update one way only? (i.e. import from subDatabase to mainDatabase and not main to sub?)
Tables :: Splitting Database - Front End Does Not Link To All Tables In Back End

The front end does not link to all the tables in the back end. The list that comes up when creating the linkings does not show all the tables in the back end. What would cause this?

Tables :: Master Database - Several Tables With Two Reference Points
Jul 4, 2013I have broken up by master database, table, into several tables. They all share the same ID values since they came from the master table. So each table that I split off has a unique, matching, identifier, ID, in both the master table and the new table. Plus a previous matching identifier listed immediately below.
Example: Permit the master or main table and Builder a supporting table. There are five tables that I split off and all have an identifier similar to the two listed below.
Permit->ID
Permit->BLD
Builder->ID
Builder->BLD
All my tables have the same ID. But each table also has a identification numbers such as builder BLD, Subdivision SB and inspector INS>
Permit has the BLD, SB and INS
Builder has only one occurrence for each builder in the Permit table. As in the past it was identified by BLD number and now also ID. the use of BLD is from when I used visual dBase. The big difference here is that I have two ways to identify one is ID any other is by BLD, etc. My first thought is to identified by the BLD. I don't know why, but I guess I fear using a single "ID" to identify my various split off tables unique value or BLD.

View 5 Replies View RelatedTables :: Get A List Of Linked Tables From A Database
Sep 19, 2013looking for a way to export the list of table names, table types & if they are linked (e.g. tbl Sales Linked .dbf or tbl Staff linked to excel) from a database - this has to be done for about 300 databases.
in an individual db, I have a make table query off of the table MSysObjects to get the data. The Database field tells me where the source of the linked table resides & the ForeignName field gives me an idea of the format of the data source (e.g. dbf or excel). I could manually import that query into each db, run it to get the table names, then copy & paste..
Tables :: One Query From 2 Tables Within Same Database
Jul 29, 2013I have one database that I am working on and within it there are several Tables. 2 of the tables have similar information on various organisations and I need to query these 2 tables to get a simple mailing list of ALL organisation addresses and the main incumbent there.
Within Access (2007) and in the SQL View window, I have made a simple query to give me a list of all the organisations and incumbents but cannot get it to work correctly. Is there an easy way to get this information out of the 2 tables? I realise that the SQL in SQL View has to be formatted differently. I have also tried the Microsoft Query Wizard but that doesn't work either as it gives in a side by side list which is useless to me.
The Field names that are required are as follows:
<Incumbent>, <Organisation>, <Address1>, <Address2>, <Address3>, <County>, <Postcode>,
Tables :: Renaming Tables In Database
Aug 28, 2013I am playing around with a sample Access 2007 database that has a number of tables, forms, reports queries and macros.I would like to rename then so that the names make it easier for me to recognise what they are when listed in a drop down list.
For example, I have a form named "Workorder Parts" and a table named "Workorder Parts" and I would like to rename the table to "tWorkorder Parts" and the forms to "fWorkorder Parts".I am assuming that these are referenced throughout the database and would like to know if there is a simple way to do a rename on mass?

Tables :: Old Database Using New ID?
Jul 1, 2013I have several visual dBase tables converted over to Access 2013. The old tables use identification, SEQ. I have retained the old SEQ , but now have the Access ID. It seems I somewhere saw that if you delete an ID, you will be changing all the subsequent IDs that follow. In other words, if you have ten records that have IDs of 1-10 , and delete record five, ID 005, record ID 006 now becomes 005.
Is that true. Is it a good policy to count on the ID number when you at times delete records?
True, I could test this theory myself, but I'm concerned that there might be conditions where it could be troublesome.
