Access-like Automation In SQL Server 2005?
Jul 8, 2006
I'm a newbie to SQL Server, trying to make the leap from Access because I'm starting out grow it for my needs. I have a lot of automation stuff in Access where it does a query/code driven process for us via a macro. Sometimes the output is a report, or a form with assembled data that we use. I'm wondering if SQL Server 2005 is capable of doing automation of processes like these as well. Even if it's not necessarily a macro, something I can program, compile and have use off of my SQL Server database to do the tasks that the Access macro did.

Hi all,
I have a task which needs to be automated.
1) Excel spreadsheet load into sql server database as a table.

Hello Experts,
I am a New Bee in SQL.I would like to know,As a System Admin I would like to automate the task of keeping the SQL Server up to date with latest Service Packs and Patches.
Is there any procedure / Software where I can automatically download the patch / sp's from the site and install on the servers or maybe schedule the task for every month.
I would appreciate a reply from the experts

H...
I have a problem to run a package with a scrip task containing the code in this page. I try to create a new excel workbook, change some cells, and save it to the harddrive. When designing the package in BI dev studio, I can execute it without a problem. I can even run it with DTexec.exe. The problem is that when I run this package from the SQL server agent, then it breaks. It breaks on a machine running Windows server 2008 with SQL server 2008 on it and it also breaks on a machine running Vista with sql server 2005, but it runs fine on a windows server 2003 machine with sql server 2005 on it.
I can also mention that if I dim out the one line after the comment in the code, then It runs fine on any one of my machines. The problem seems to be with saving or opening an excel file. I am also making use of a proxy with a credential using my login name. I am part of the administrators on these machines.
Imports eXcel = Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel
Public Sub Main()
Dim objExcel As New eXcel.Application
Dim objSheet As eXcel.Worksheet
Dim strFname As String = "c: empBook3.xls"
objExcel.DisplayAlerts = False
objExcel.Application.Interactive = False
objExcel.Workbooks.Add()
objExcel.Cells(1, 1) = "0"
'I dim out the next line and it works from sql server agent on any machine
objExcel.ActiveWorkbook.SaveAs(strFname)
objExcel.DisplayAlerts = True
objExcel.Application.Quit()
objSheet = Nothing
objExcel = Nothing
Dts.TaskResult = ScriptResults.Success
End Sub
The error that I receive is this one:

I am trying to connect through ODBC connectivity, but it will not allow me to do so. I have investigated this matter. It leads me back to the server, because as I was configuring my client side database. It kept asking for the DSN(datasource name), but I was unable to choose one because there wasn't one to choose. Which is my current dilemma, How can I do this and have it available to choose from the server to satisfy the Access database?
I went to the domain where the software resides but I don't know what steps to take? I also found an interesting piece on microsoft about Kerberos, but I can't follow along according to the instructions it has. I have Access 2003 & SQL SERVER 2005, HELP...!
Basically, this is right off the heels of the install. I setup the server without the connectivity, but it is running the current configuration.

I have a 2 node cluster with 2 standalone 2k14 instances having alwayson setup. As per client requirement we have created a client access point with a cname alias in dns to connect to secondary replica. Now, everytime whenerver the roles switch over one has to manually move this resource from the previous secondary node to the new secondary node. This is tedious, and should not be done manually either, so I am looking for a way to automate it so that as soon as the role switches over, the resource group after some time should also switch over to the current secondary.
Env details
xa (current primary)
y2a (secondary)
client access point (resource group): aglreadtest

I have been wacthing several webcasts, reading blogs and articles and understanding what BI is, especillay ETL and Analysis Services, but somehow have not been able to find a solution to my problem. I have been able to understand most of the Analysis Services part of SQL Server 2005, but need help with taking data from MS Access to SQL Server to create a cube.
I have an MS Access 2003 DB with 4 tables which holds all the data from which I want to generate BI. I have just installed SQL Server 2005 Developer Edition.
Below are my questions:
1. Do I need to first make a new DB in SQL Server 2005 with a star schema and then transfer all the data from Access, or will SQL make a star schema for me when I transfer the data from Access.
2. How does one clean data during the ETL transfer process from Access to SQL. Do SSIS allow the user to do this? How?
thank you for all the help !

I'm able to connect to SQL Server 2005 express using SQL Native and see the data and create reports in MS Access 2003. But I cannot change the data, is there an option or permission I forgot? I seen multiple posts that MS Access is not the best tool for doing simple reports. What would be better? I don't want to create a Web Page etc, InfoPath?
Also, I would like to stick with SQL Server Express...

I'm trying to bring down a file from the AS/400 to update a SQL database table. Either thru the configuration limitations on the SQL server or ??? I cannot reach the as/400 from my SQL box so I'm running the data down to a Citrix server to a text file via client access.
I need to automate the DTS package run on the SQL box to pull the data from the Citrix server over to the SQL box.
How do I set up the DTS package to run on a schedule?

Hi All,
I'm new to SQL server. Basically, I am trying to make my Access database accessible on line to my users, so I am transfering it into SQL Server and then writing a web site to use the connection to the database.
My questions are as follows:
1) How can I easily move the structure of the tables (relationships too, but content is not important) from Access into SQL?
2) I have the following query in Access which I don't believe will work in SQL because of the Sum funtion... How can I change this to work in SQL?:
SELECT DISTINCTROW Player.TeamID, Player.PlayerID, Player.SFD, Sum(Payments.Amount) AS Payment, [SFD]-[Payment] AS Due
FROM Player INNER JOIN Payments ON Player.PlayerID = Payments.PlayerID
GROUP BY Player.TeamID, Player.PlayerID, Player.SFD;
All help will be greatfully received... thanks

I am new to databases and need some info that I'm having trouble researching. I just migrated a access database to SQL server 2005 using SQL Server Migration assistant (SSMA). I wondered how SSMA handles NULL values? Also how it treats differences between Access and SQL? Any help would be appreciated.

Hello!
I have a application where users are supposed to edit data from a table in a datagrid.
I want to use a dropdownlist to let the user choose a table to edit.
The users are members of different windows-goupes and different users have only access to edit there own tables. Let's say that they own data in different tables.
Is it possible to use windows authentication to find out what tables to show in the dropdownlist?
If it is, how do I get the names of the tables?
Best regards

I'm having weird issues with connecting to MS SQL Server. Sometimes it can establish a connection and sometimes it can't. This is both with ODBC and with .net code. This happens on multiple computers. I.e. one minute you can connect, the next you can't.
I have a SQL 2000 server which connects fine every time. So I assume the problem is with the upgraded MS SQL Server. I want to be able to resolve this issue before upgrading the main server to SQL 2005.

Hi,
I have a problem with connecting to our SQL Server 2005 through Access 2007. I get a msg "ODBC-- failed. [Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][SQL Server] SELECT permission denied on object 'clients', database 'Contacts', schema 'dbo' (#229)" We have moved some of our tables from Access over to SQL Server 2005. I recently got Access 2007 and I'm the only one at the office that has this problem (everyone else uses Access 2003 or older). I can link tables to SQL Server but I can't open them and I can't open Forms or Reports that has those tables as data source. I can open other objects in Access that are not linked to SQL Server.
Does anyone know why this is?
Thanks Charlotte

I am upsizing a number of Access 2003 databases to SQL Server 2005 with Access Project front ends. Access Tables all upsize OK, some Queries upsize to SQL Views, some to SQL Functions and some get skipped completely. I have fixed up data type issues with Yes/No and Date/Time fields.
I would like all my Access Queries to be SQL Views. Some queries may have calculated fields and I suspect this is one of the issues. The only log in the report states 'Query "QueryName" failed to upsize'. Where should I start looking.
Any ideas on this please.
Thanks,

Hi,
I have a database in MSACCESS 2003 that is 680MB (after compacting) and contains 41 tables.
I tried to import these tables to SQL Server 2005 (express edition) using the :"upsizing wizard" provided in MSACCESS. The wizard works fine but all the tables are not being imported to SQL Server (only 19 tables are getting imported) and the size of the database in SQL Server (the ".mdf file") is 1.03 GB (I have tried using the "shrink" option also) . Further, when I try to open one of the tables (which has 625295 rows and 90 columns) , it takes lot of time to display all records.
So, my problem is do I need to set any options for any of these above issues, I tried to look for any information regarding this but was unsuccessful.
Any help on this will be very much helpful for me!
thanks

Can anyone tell my how to access it through a computer out of my company?
