Today we are very pleased to announce the RTW release of Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Compact Edition Access Database Synchronizer (ADS) for which many of you been waiting eagerly.
Access Database Synchronizer provides a way to synchronize data between Microsoft Access database on a desktop and Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Compact Edition database on a device.
The salient features of this solution are summarized below Ø Provides a synchronization solution between SQL Mobile/SSCE and MS Access. Data conversion is done while synchronizing the data. Ø Synchronization happens when there is an active ActiveSync connection between the device and the desktop. Ø There is no update to SQL Mobile/SSCE on the device. The solution consists of only of desktop side component which works with the existing client agent on the device. Ø The solution is based on existing RDA replication model. Programming model is exactly the same as RDA today. Ø Device applications written today do not need to be updated if the solution is upsized from access to SQL Server. Ø There is no conflict detection/resolution.
The setup installs the desktop component required for synchronizing Microsoft Access database with SQL Server Compact Edition database on the device. It also includes a readme file which has the documentation for the solution and a sample application. The readme file can be downloaded separately. The sample application shows how the solution works and how to write applications for this solution. The components installed on the desktop can be used by third party applications to provide data synchronization between Microsoft Access database on the desktop and SQL Server Compact/SQL Mobile database on the device.
On a desktop, the following operating systems will be supported: Ø Microsoft Windows XP Professional SP2 Ø Microsoft Windows XP Home Edition SP2 Ø Microsoft Windows XP Media Center Edition 2005 with Windows XP MCE 2005 Update Rollup 2installed. Ø Microsoft Windows XP Tablet PC Edition SP2 Ø Microsoft Windows Vista (Only Windows Mobile 6.0 devices are supported)

Someone please help, Ive downloaded and instsalled Microsoft Access Database Synchronizer (ADS) RTW onto my desktop and the files have installed to C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL Server Compact Editionv3.1SyncAccess. Ive got a device running windows CE 5.0 connected to the desktop via USB. Ive installed all the necessary CAB files onto the device but how do I get the ADS working? What do I have to do with the files installed? I am fairly new to this so can someone please help me. Isnt there supose to be an option in the start menu to run the wizard, i don't seem to be getting this?
I have installed ADS on a wm5 device, and my desktop computer is running XP. When I try to connect to the Access Database (via ADS) with my network cable in, it works fine But as soon as my network cable is unplugged, an error comes up €œError connecting to Access Database€? Can somebody please give me some suggestions on how to fix this problem I want to be able to sync my sdf database to my mdb database (via ads) without my network cable being plugged in
I have created a PPC application that uses ADS to synchronize my sqlce db with a desktop MS Access database. It works fine on my computers, but my client cant get it to work on his. Here is the situation.
His "Computer Name" as it's stated in his 'My Computer' properties is "PAVSGP024FE.NWFSC.NOAA.GOV"
However his Access.MDW File is located in the directory "C:Documents and SettingsJoe NobodyApplication DataMicrosoftAccessSystem.MDW".
There is no directory called "C:Documents and SettingsPAVSGP024FE.NWFSC.NOAA.GOVApplication DataMicrosoftAccessSystem.MDW".
He has tried adding port 1024 as an exception for his firewall settings, has installed Access Database Synchronizer on his computer, and I have also tried using the "long" computer name as the url setting in the config file. (i.e. <URL>http://PAVSGP024FE.NWFSC.NOAA.GOV:1024/</URL> but this throws the error
"The HTTP request failed due to incorrect format or content. Try restarting the IIS server.[]"
I dont know what else to try! Anybody have any suggestions?
Hi, I downloaded and install ADS. I cannot find the synchronization wizard in the start menu as indcated in the Readme.doc. file that come with the .msi file. I also need help to install the synchronizer onto the mobile device (windows mobile 5). The readme file seems to imply there is another setup file after te .msi file was executed. ("After you run the AccessDatabaseSynchronizer-EN.msi file, the setup files are installed at <installation drive:>Program FilesMicrosoft SQL Server Compact Editionv3.1SyncAccess.") I can't find the setup file. Am I missing something? Please help.
After downloading and installing this tool, I'm confused. The documentation refers to a wizard, which I can't find in the Start menu.
Development team: Where is this wizard? This is a great idea that I'm certain many people can benefit from--- please make some better documentation, and give us a product that does what the documentation says.
We have been asked to look into using stored procedures with SQL Server 7.0 as a way to speed up a clients site. 99% of all the articles I have read along with all the books all say Stored Procedure should be used whenever possible as opposed to putting the SQL in your ASP script. However one of my colleagues has been speaking to Microsoft and they said that that they were surprised that our client wanted to use Stored Procedures as this was the old method of database access and that now he should really consider using COM objects for data access as itis much faster. Has anyone got any views on this or know of any good aticles regarding this matter ?
I have recently upgraded to SQL2014 on Win2012. The Access front end program works fine.
But, previously created Excel reports with built in MS Queries now fail with the above error for users with MS 2013. The queries still work for users still using MS 2007.Â
I also cannot create any new queries and get the same error message. If I log on as myself on the domain to another PC with 2007 installed it works fine, so I don't think it is anything to do with AD groups or permissions.
I developed a database with Access 2003 and everything was working good until my tech came in and reformated my hard drive and install a new Ghost image that met our company standards.
Now I cannot go in and make any changes to any of the tables, queries and forms. All of this started when a new Ghost image was installed on my pc.
The message I get when I try to open my database is "You do not have permission to run "tblSwitchboard." I get the same error message when I try to do anything at all on the database.
We have a SQL database that uses Active Directory with Windows Authentication. Can users that are members of the Active Directory group that has read/write access to the SQL database create ODBC connections to access the database directly and update the data? They dont have individual logins on the server. They are only members of the Active Directory group that has a login?
Dear All, i have a question abt winCE 4.2 and SQL server CE. i am using VB.net of Visual Studio 2005 My platform is using a PDA with winCE 4.2 and SQL server CE. The Host program is using dbf files on desktop side.
I got a problem of how to sync / read the sql CE data from a windows application.
so, i wanna ask,
1. any method to access the data from winCE data by windows application? or can i convert the sdf file to windows readable files? or any others?
2. Can i use a MDB to sync with SQL server CE? can i synchronize the mobile device which has a SQL Server CE database with the Access database on the desktop?
last question, 3. is that windows CE .net 4.2 not support pocket access (cdb) anymore?
I need detailed instructions on how to connect to a database from a Microsoft Access 2007 database to a Microsft Office Accounting 2007 database. The accounting database is an SQL 2005 datbase. It has an instance name of "MSSMLBIZ".
When I try I get an SQL error 53. Do not have permissions or database does not exist.
I'am doing functionality test on DTS packages and saving my DTS packages to meta data services instead of saving them as local packages. We would like to see what information would be provided by saving them this way, but when we try to open the meta data browser (the 3rd icon under DTS) we get the following error:
An error occurred while trying to access the database information. The msdb database could not be opened.
Hi I am wondering if anyone knows of a way of synchroniseing two versions of a database one in access and one in sql server so they can both run in parrallel in ssis for updates etc.
Also can anyone recommend a book which is easy to use or resources as I can't find what I am looking for in the online help.
I've used the ADS sample program and it works well. I looked at the code and changed it to VB (sorry, I'm not biligual yet), and have tried to 'adjust' it so I can connect to a remote PC (XP running IIS) instead of the local PC using the workgroup information database (system.mdw). Any ideas of the connection string that could make the connection?..my intention is to RDA once a week between a mobile device (3g/gsm) and a 'poor man's' IIS web server. I've tried everything I can think of, and I'm sure its possible since all I'm doing is changing the connection path.
I have a quick question regarding getting data from a SQL database but I am slightly confused as to the best way to handle it.
Basically on of the projects I am working on I need to send data to another company, there are several calls required to the database to bring back various options for changing the questions asked on the front end.
Up to now all that has happened is there has been a mutual agreement between myself and this other company and they have just had access to the database to call a series of stored procs which I have written for them to access the data. Recently however the situation has changed and my client wants me stop them accessing the database however they still need to recieve the information from the database they recieve now.
What will be the best way to handle this? My knowledge of SQL is farily limited presently and I am only ust getting into learning a lot more about it.
I have MS-Access as data source for one of the reports. I can preview the report fine from BI studio however, it does not work when I deploy it on report server.
The error is :
An error has occurred during report processing. Cannot create a connection to data source '<data source name>'.
The Microsoft Jet database engine cannot open the file '<UNC location of the MS-Access database>'. It is already opened exclusively by another user, or you need permission to view its data.
MS-Access database is located on a different server.
Any help to solve this? I understand it has something to do with permission both on server where reporting service is running as well as the server where MS-access database is located. Pls help.
I got thrown into a new project that is going to require me to update an SQL server database tables from an Access table on the backend of an Oracle database on another server. At the end of each day the Access dabase will be updated from the Oracle database.
What I need to do, is when the Access database is updated I need to have the table in the SQL database automaticaly updated. When a new record is added to the Access table I need the new record added to the SQL table. When a record is deleted in the Access table I need to keep that record in the SQL table and set a field to a value (such as 0). And when a record is updated in Access, have it updated in SQL.
Needless to say this is a bit out of my area and not sure how to accomplish this.

I recently created a form to MS access database web application and it worked fine on my local cpu. When I published the same web app to my hosting server the program wouldn't work but I couldn't understand. Well, after researching the matter I found out my hosting server doesn't allow ASP.NET applications that use the aspcompat page directive because of security trust levels. So, I decided to switch to a SQL database but I can't even test the web application on my local cpu because I get this error "An error has occurred while establishing a connection to the server. When connecting to SQL Server 2005, this failure may be caused by the fact that under the default settings SQL Server does not allow remote connections. (provider: Named Pipes Provider, error: 40 - Could not open a connection to SQL Server)". So, once again I researched this error on the internet and found these two websites with incite to what is causing the error. http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;EN-US;914277http://www.cryer.co.uk/brian/sqlserver/hresult_0x2%20npp_error_establishing_connection.htmI tried all the remedies suggested except for the cmd procedure in the second lind because I don't understand how to run that command in sqlcmd from start>run. Anyway, I can't get my web application to work and I wanted to know if someone can assist me.
