Converting MSAccess .MDB To SQL Server Database
Apr 1, 2005
I need to switch from MS Access to SQL Server for my database. To set
up a development environment I downloaded the free Microsoft SQL Server
Express (February CTP version). I installed the required .NET Framework
v2, and then SQLExpress. The install was done using all the defaults,
and was done successfully. I also downloaded and installed the SQL
Express Manager Tool.
The SQL Server was installed on the same machine as my VS.NET
development environment. The SQL Server process is now running, and I
can connect to the server using the SQL Express Manager Tool. This
allows me to view and query the sample databases, but not much else.
To convert my Access .MDB database to SQL Server, I am trying to use
the MS Access Upsizing Wizard. The version of Access I am using is
Access 2002 on a Windows XP-Professional system. The problem is that
Access cannot get a connection to the SQL Server. I tried using the
default server name "(local)" and "Use Trusted Connection", but I
receive the following error:
Connection failed:
SQLState: '01000'
SQL Server Error: 2
[Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver[]Shared Memory]ConnectionOpen (Connect()).
Connection failed:
SQLState: '08001'
SQL Server Error: 17
[Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver[]Shared Memory]SQL Server does not exist or access denied.
Curiously, I get this exact same error message even if the SQL service
is stopped. So I'm pretty sure the problem is that it is not finding
the SQL server, and not a security issue.
In order to connect to the SQL server using the SQL Server Manager
Tool, you have to provide the actual instance name for the server
"COMPNAMESQLExpress". So I tried using this server name in the Access
Upsizing Wizard, but this returns the same error message as above
except the first SQL Server Error is 53. I also tried using a Login ID
and password (using the Windows administrator ID and password, and also
the "sa" ID and password) to no avail.
I am at wits end, and can't figure out why Access can't find the SQL Server. Any ideas would be appreciated.
Thanks.

Hi,
I have a msaccess linked server that I use to execute sql 2000 stored procedures from a front end in adp (access data project) format without any problem, if it is used on the same machine where the sql server resides (with any user logged on). In any other machine on the local network where I also need to use it, I get an ole/db error message saying that the microsoft jet database engine can not open the file because it's allready opened exclusivly or because it do not has permissions. I created the linked server with both UNC and normal path with the same result.
Thank's for all the help/clues you can give me.

I'm using MSAccess 2k as a front end to a SQL Server 2k database.
I have a user set up in SQL Server to be database owner for a specific database.
Using NT authentication.
Using ADO.
The MSAccess application executes a store procedure on the SQL Server that (1) deletes a tables if it exists, (2) creates and populates a table (the owner shows up in Enterprise Manager as the user name) and then (3) uses the table (read) in a join to do some other processing.
The (1) delete works fine.
The (2) table is created and populated fine.
On (3) the Select (inner join) to do the aditional processing I get an error message that the table name used is an invalid object.
Workaround.
If I create the table as sa separately and in the store procedure, instead of deleting, creating and populating the table I merely truncate the table and then repopulate it, everything works fine.
I would prefer to not have the table sitting around the database all the time.
Anyway, I'd like to figure out why the table is causing a problem.
Any ideas?
Thanks.

Hi,
I am getting below error when exporting data from SQL Server 2005 to MS Access.
[DTS.Pipeline] Error: SSIS Error Code DTS_E_PROCESSINPUTFAILED. The ProcessInput method on component "OLE DB Destination" (1706) failed with error code 0xC0202009. The identified component returned an error from the ProcessInput method. The error is specific to the component, but the error is fatal and will cause the Data Flow task to stop running. There may be error messages posted before this with more information about the failure.
Its direct mapping from OLE DB Source (SQL Server 2005) to OLE DB Dest (MS-Access Database)
Help from anyone. Plz its urgent.
Regards,

Hi
I have a linked server to MSAccess DB and, when I try to select record from a table that have a column
with a bad date formatted (with year less than 1753) I receive the message:
.... conversion error from DBTYPE_DBTIMESTAMP to datetime....
My scope is set to NULL this bad values from Sql Server ...
I first try with something like
UPDATE LNK_SVR...TABLE SET FLD=NULL WHERE ISDATE(FLD)=0
But I receive the same error... perheaps the provider generate the error before an Sql Server evaluation ...
So I think to a passthrought query:
exec sp_serveroption @server='LNK_SVR',@optname='rpc out',@optvalue='true'
exec LNK_SVR...sp_executesql 'update table set FLD=NULL WHERE YEAR(FLD)<1753'
But I receive the folowing message ....
Messaggio 7213, livello 16, stato 1, riga 1
Il provider non è riuscito a passare parametri di stored procedure remota al server remoto 'LNK_SVR. Verificare che il numero, l'ordine e il valore dei parametri passati siano corretti.
Any suggestion is appreciate.
Thanks in advance

I recently upgraded to SQL Server 2005. My databases are stable and functioning perfectly. However, these databases are using the 32-bit version of SQL Server. The servers are going to be upgraded to 64-bit processors and new Server 2003 64-bit OS's.
Everything I have been able to find says that it is a simple process of backing up the databases in the 32-bit environment and restoring them in the 64-bit environment.
Could it really be that easy? I am looking for someone who has done this to provide any "heads up" commentary on what to look out for during that process. Can anyone provide some information on this process?
Thanks.

hello,
I'm not really sure my question belongs to here...
I have a database in Access (from microsoft office, of course), and I want to transfer convert it to SQL Server.
Does anyone know how I can do it? It must be very simple, but I haven't found it yet....
Thanks a lot!

I would like to pull some data from a SQLServer database, and save it into an Access MDB file (which can be empty to start). I would then zip up the MDB and download it to the user.
I am seeking advice on the most "elegant" or "efficient" way to do this. Here are some ideas I have been considering:
1) Should I start with an empty template MDB and file-copy it before I populate it? Or is there a neat way in ASP.NET to allocate a brand new MDB outright?
2) I could read the SQLServer data into a Dataset object. I could then open a connection to the MDB, create a table object, defining all the columns, etc., and then I could write the data to the new table object. BUT ... I have a hunch there is a nifty ADO.NET way to save the data already in the Dataset object right into the MDB (creating the table and columns as a matter of course) ... all with an instruction or two (or three). Any ideas?
Thanks in advance!

Hi there,
We have a MSSQL 2000 db, with several MSAccess 2000 adp interfaces connected to it.
Several bit data type fields of the tables are updated through those interfaces, but from time to time (I can find no pattern when it happens), flagged fields (i.e. with value 1) are unflagged (they get value 0), without any user interaction on that field (neither in the tables, neither through the checkboxes).
Anybody familiar with this issue?

The following works fine in Access:
SELECT Hist_POS.POSITION_CLASS_CODE, First(Hist_POS.POSITION_TITLE) AS FirstOfPOSITION_TITLE INTO [Manhour Positions]
FROM Hist_POS
GROUP BY Hist_POS.POSITION_CLASS_CODE
ORDER BY Hist_POS.POSITION_CLASS_CODE;
But not SQLServer because of First(). How can I achieve the same results in SQLServer?

I am having issues with MSAccess and MS SQL for a new client. It worked in the past, but I cannot talk to the old computer guy?!# Here's the scoop. It uses an Access front end and ODBC to conect to the MS SQL 7.0 server. In the office they use a system DSN named DATA to connect using NT authentication. I've got the firewall configured for the two employees static ip addresses to goto the MS SQL server. On the remote machines, I have added a system DNS named DATA as well that uses MS SQL authentication. I setup the remote user accounts on the MS SQL server. Now heres the problem. I can test the ODBC from the remote omputer and it works.At first I could not get into teh database at all. I went in and updated the Access file connection strings to include a username and password. Now I can get into the Access front end and access the main page. (IT has a couple of buttons - Shpping, Inventory, Management, etc.) I can even click on these buttons and pull up the next page. (For example I can click on the management button and pull up a list of new buttons- one of which is Auto Exec Bob) NOw when I click autoexec bob or any of the others it takes a while and then give me an error. (SQLState 28000 MS SQL error: 18452 Login failed for user null. Reason: Not associated with a trusted SQL Server Connection.) If I click ok then I have a box that lets me uncheck the use trusted connection and sign in using my remote username and pass that I setup. Eventually I can access everything - one step at a time.Each time it tries to connect to the database it takes about thirty seconds to time out, then gives me this error message and I can log on again. Any help to sort this out would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

We are using .Net Framework 2.0. Does it have anything to do with lowering down the performance ?

im in the begginging stages of converting an access 2003 backend to SQL 2003sp3.
The access's upgrade wizzard did an ok job getting most of the tables ported over. Now when the frontend relinked the tables to SQL server im assuming i just continue on using them as is. When the wizzard wanted a connection to use i created a new connection and saved it on the server. Im assuming this connection object is what access is using to get to SQL.
Am i assuming correctly ?
The reason i ask is only a few of the linked tables in to sql seem to be editable. some are read only ? (i have primary keys in all my tables.) im just calling a query bound to the linked tables.
Secondly, But could be related.
Now this problem i dont understand. On open of my main form i log who and what pc they are using. in this situation i open a record set, log the data and close it. At first the error was i needed to add dbSeeChanges on my object, ok so i added it as an option.
But i now get an the error message: at rsTran.AddNew "Run Time error: 3027 , Can Not update. Database or Object is read Only ?
here is the code
Set db = CurrentDb
Set rsTran = db.OpenRecordset("tblUserLog", dbOpenDynaset, dbSeeChanges)
struser = Currentuser
strNetwork = atCNames(1)
strPC = atCNames(2)
rsTran.AddNew
rsTran("UserName") = struser
rsTran("MachineName") = strPC
rsTran("EmployeeNum") = strNetwork
rsTran("Notes") = "User Logon"
rsTran.Update
Set db = Nothing
Set rsTran = Nothing
thank for any advice.

We have plan to migrate our database from Access to SqlCe.
Here our situation:
We will never use a Pocket PC applications, only Windows desktop application.
We want to migrate the .mdb file to a .sdf file (I've seen the ADS application, but since we don't use mobile devices, it's no use)
The .sdf will be use on local client machine only.
Here's my problems:
I've use a conversion to migrate from access (http://www.primeworks-mobile.com/Downloads/DPW.html) and seem to work fine.
I updated the source code to use the SqlServerCe dll instead of OleDB.
Some of my queries work fine, but others just won't work in VS2005 using C#.
To check if the query is really wrong, I take exactly the same query and put it Query Builder from the Server Explorer in VS2005.
And the query just work fines!!! It's bring back all the records asked for, and I've got an error for the same query from my source code.
I'm using a datatable, here's the code used for filling the DataTable. I've got an error on the line adapter.FillSchema()
string connectionString = @"Data Source=" + fic_parent.CheminFichierComplet;
using (SqlCeConnection connection = new SqlCeConnection(connectionString))
{
SqlCeDataAdapter adapter = new SqlCeDataAdapter();
connection.Open();
SqlCeCommand command = new SqlCeCommand(requete, connection);
command.CommandType = CommandType.TableDirect;
adapter.SelectCommand = command;
tableResultats = new DataTable();
adapter.FillSchema(tableResultats, SchemaType.Source);
adapter.Fill(tableResultats);
// Close connection
connection.Close();
}
Error is:
Message="The specified table does not exist. [ (...) ]"
Source="SQL Server 2005 Everywhere Edition ADO.NET Data Provider"
HResult=-2147217865
NativeError=0
Here my questions:
Is it possible to have an application that will convert my Access databases to an SSCe .sdf file ?
Why I can query in Server Explorer and can't in my source code using the same sql statement ?
At which level my code isn't good, because I just replace all OleDB* --> SqlCe* in my code.
I hope that I explain clearly my problem, do not hesitate to ask me questions about this problem.

I have a Access 2002 (saved as 2K format) front end to a SQL Server (2000 I believe) and everything worked fine until I added 30 new fields to the main table. All of these fields are data type Bit and all are initialized to zero. I can add new records without any issues. The problem is that any time I try to update or delete a record I get the dreaded "Write Conflict..." msg in Access. If I use an older version of the system without refreshing the linked tables I have no problems. This behavior is also exhibited if I try to update/delete a record directly in the table so I know it is not something in my forms. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Forgive me if this question is a bit too generic, if it is, feel free tojust not respond.I have a database which has been running in PostgreSQL for a number ofyears at this stage which I want to port into MS SQL server.It seems that the SQL that Postgre outputs when I do a backup is notsyntactically correct within MS-SQL server.My question is, does anyone have any documentation on how to convert adatabase from the Postgre platform to SQL server? Is it possible usingan ODBC connection to import a database structure including tabledefinitions, views etc into SQL Server?Failing this, does anyone have any suggestions on where I might start -I did attempt to go through the SQL code and modify it to suit SQLserver, but it's about 3,500 lines of code excluding the insertstatements (which themselves are also wrong) and almost every line needssomething changed when comparing SQL syntax from Postgre to MSSQL serverThanks in advance for any comments/suggestions.Engada.--Posted via a free Usenet account from http://www.teranews.com
