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.
Hi guys.
I'm using the SSMA to migrate Access databases into SQL Sever. It's a pretty nifty tool, however, I am having some trouble fully migrating the data over.
When I select 'Convert Schema' the schemas for all the tables are created on the server and *all* the table names appear in the Server Metadata Explorer. There are the usual warnings about name changes and primary key additions and the like but importantly, the output window says that there were no errors. Scrolling through all the tables on the server explorer with the 'Table' tab selected confirms that the schemas for all the tables have been migrated, but for one or two of the newly created tables, the 'Data' tab shows the error message "Failed to retrieve data: Invalid object name 'NewDB.dbo.Pref'" for example. Consequently, when I move on to migrating the data, the operation fails for the tables showing these errors and the error message 'The table 'NewDB.dbo.[Pref]' does not exist in SQL Server' is shown when it is displaying in the Metadata Explorer. When I view the server schema in Management Studio Express, it confirms that they have not been migrated. I have tried to look at the failing tables' schemas and identify any similarities which might be causing them to fail migration but they are all very different so I don't think it's a schema issue.
Any ideas? TIA
I have just finished using the SSMA Access tool to migrate an Access database to SQL Server Express. I would just like some clarification on some of the warning messages please.
1. "New timestamp column 'SSMA_TimeStamp' created." How does SSMA determine whether or not to add a timestamp?
2. Why are indexes and keys represented by strings of numbers in Access? What are the numbers precisely?
3. "The foreign key '{32F3E8B2-03B3-46EE-BEBF-C202040E10F3}' is not enforced and therefore cannot be converted." Does this mean that the represented relationship will not be created on the server if referential integrity is not enforced in Access? If so, why doesn't SQL Server allow for this unenforced relationship?
Thanks for any help.
I was testing the SSMA with SQL Server Express yesterday and it converted the database over from Access 2000 to SQL Server without incident using the wizard; that is until I attempted to execute the final step and connect the SQL Server Express. At that point, I was unable to move the database into SQL Server because I the connection failed. It failed in the sense that I was able to enter the Server name but the boxes to move forward in the process were all grayed out.
Has anyone used SSMA (SQL Server Migration Assistant) with SQL Server Express?
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 don't see all my MySQL tables inside SSMA 5.2 after connecting to the MySQL server and database. Some tables are shown but many are not.All tables are Innodb in mysql and in the same database. I can see the tables using many tools, such as MySQL Workbench. I also have a linked server in SQL Server 2012 that links to the same MySQL server and database and sees all the tables -but SSMA 5.2 does not. The LinkedServer uses the same ODBC connection, and the same credentials (username / password).
I have SSMA for MySQL Extension Pack installed, and I am using “Server Side Data Migration Engine” to migrate the tables.
I have done a "check table" from within MySQL on one of the missing tables, and there is no corruption.
I tried to use the LinkedServer to connect from within SSMA, but it appears that SSMA does not allow me to use them?
I have an ODBC connection with both the 32 big and the 64 bit driver. I'm running this from 64 bit Windows Server 2012.
I am using ssma to migrate database from oracle 9i to sql server 2000. I successfully migrated oracle tables,views,procedures,functions etc.. But can you please help me on how to migrate packages and triggers? Here i can able to view the headings like"Triggers", "packages", "Indexes" in SSMA. But none of my oracle objects are displaying under these headings.
what could be the problem?
thanks
I need to migrate an oracle database (which has 500 GB data) to SQL server using SSMA.
Currently, with default SSMA settings it seems to be taking more than 12 hours.
Are there any settings in oracle side or SSMA or SQL server through which we can make migration faster?
I have SQL 2000 and installed SQL 2005 Express. Had done some test migrations of
Access 2003 to SQL2000 using the tool for that. Upgraded that migration assistant to
SQL 2005 (my mistake) and now I have 2 instances of SQL2005 running (according to
surface area configuration) and even the server mgr for SQL2000 can see those instances..
but SSMA 2005 refuses to see them.. My migration test project is dead in the water..
Can I get a copy of SSMA for SQL2000 back?..Anybody?..
Thanks..
I have 53 tables I need to load from Oracle into SQL Server as part of a migration to a new system. All but three of the tables load perfectly. Three tables load approximately 95% of the rows. The problem tables have between 300,000 and 1,300,000 rows. Oddly some of the tables that migrate successfully have more than 10,000,000 rows. What to check to determine why these tables are failing to load?

Unable to find specified provider.Error occurred while establishing connection to Sybase server. If you have 64-bit connectivity components installed on the machine, you can run 64-bit version of SSMA application whose shortcut can be found under the Programs menu. Or you can install the 32-bit connectivity libraries form Sybase product media or download it from Sybase web site.
I am useing SQL Server Migration Tools for Oracle to move some data for archive purposes.
The data is moving great, however the SSMA crashes or just plain stops when it tries to convert a view that has an outer join.
Is ther any sort of fix for this?
I am running SQL Service Migration Assistant for Access 6.0 and I am getting the following error when I attempt 'Refresh from database':
Access Object Collector error: Database
Retrieving the COM class factory for component with CLSID {CD7791B9-43FD-42C5-AE42-8DD2811F0419} failed due to the following error: 80040154 Class not registered (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80040154 (REGDB_E_CLASSNOTREG)).
This error may be a result of running SSMA as 64-bit application while having only 32-bit connectivity components installed or vice versa. You can run 32-bit SSMA application if you have 32-bit connectivity components or 64-bit SSMA application if you have 64-bit connectivity components, shortcut to both 32-bit and 64-bit SSMA can be found under the Programs menu.
You can also consider updating your connectivity components from [URL] ....

I've clicked on the link above and installed the Access 2010 Runtime that I found there, but that is not working the problem. I'm running Access 2013 (32-bit) on a Windows 8.1 (64-bit).
I am trying to import a database from Access to SQL Server 2005 and it keeps failing. I don;t want to use anything but the simple screens Microsoft provides for Import/export. Any ideas on how I can make this happened?

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 link SQL Server 2000 sp3 to SQL 2005 64 bit. I keep getting Error 17 sql server does not exist or access denined. I tried adding remote user mapping and chaning the linked server properties to "Be made using this security context" without any success.
Any help is appreciated.
I have deployed some reports on the reporting server, i have noticed that every one in the domain in which the reports are published can access the reports, except one user. when he tries to access the report he got the following error message or the blank report.
"An error occured during report processing"
"can no read the next data row for the data set dataset1".
Although this user has all the roles on the reporiting server kike browser,content manager etc.
i tried many things but still problem persists.
Can anyone tell me the exact reason for this ?
I shall be extremely thankfull.

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'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

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 am working on a software system which create a database in SQL Server 2005 and then operate on this database. I want the database to be access only from the software system and not from the Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio. How can I achieve it?

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
Hi
Is it possible to access sql server 2005 via http and do some management and administration task?
Thanks in advance,

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,
George
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
