Does anyone out there have a good example of a VB Application for importing data from an Access DB into a SQL Server DB using DTS. Any help with this would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,

I hope I am giving the right information here to get help with this.
I am trying to get information from two tables that are in an access database over to sql 2005. I did this via dts and saved the import options as a file, but when I run this as a job I get the following error: Date 2/27/2008 11:14:08 AM
Log Job History (CombinationTable1)

The job failed. The Job was invoked by User BIZCHAIRDarleneMurphy. The last step to run was step 1 (CombinationTable1).
I have also tried to run this in the following way:
USE Combination_Table
CREATE TABLE GG Products
AS
SELECT *
FROM OPENROWSET('Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0',
'W:MASTER DOCUMENTSDatabasesChannel_Advisor_Feed.mdb';'admin';'', GG Products)
go
Here I get errors regarding nulls and if I pointed to the correct database, which I have.
Any help with this problem and I hope I have given good information in order to get help.
Thank you

We have a daily process, which copies millions of rows of data from one DB to another over Linked Server. Just checking on the best practise, are there more efficient ways than the Linked server to copy millions of rows of data from one DB to another? I checked bulk insert but that transfers the data from the file to DB not DB to DB.

Hello,
I am trying to import a table from Access and/or Excel. I have attempted with both programs. I get errors possibly due to some bad data over the years. Is it possible to tell SQL Server to import a table and discard any errors? or is there a way to scrub the data before importing to make sure all possible causes of errors are corrected or addressed?
Guys,
I am new to DTS 2005; having trouble on how to connect to MS Access to pull data? what kind of connection manager should I use (OLE?) and what specific Data Flow Source type? Please respond.
Thanks
[Note: originally posted this on microsoft.public.sqlserver.programmingbut had no luck there...sorry if you're seeing this twice]Some facts:1) I have an Access database (.mdb file) sitting on my harddrive.2) I have Visual Studio 2005, Sql Server Express, and Sql ServerManagement Studio Express.3) I do *not* have Microsoft Access.What I'm trying to do:I simply want to import the Access database into Sql Server Express. Inother words, I want to end up with a Sql Server Express database thathas all the same tables, keys, and relationships as the Access databaseas well as all the data from it. I can live without the queries storedin the Access database, but those would be nice too.What I've tried so far:I'm able to connect to the Access database using the "Linked Servers"features in Management Studio Express. From there, I was able to writesome simple Transact-SQL queries to find out what tables are in theAccess database and copy them, one at a time, into a Sql Server Expressdatabase.This is definitely a good start, but it doesn't take care of theprimary keys or foreign keys. There appear to be procedures for thoseas well (sp_primarykeys, sp_foreignkeys), but I keep thinking theremust be an easier way.Which brings me to...Questions:Without having to buy additional software/tools, can I import thisAccess database without a lot of programming? If so, how?Thanks in advance,-Dan
View 1 Replies View RelatedHi All,
At the moment i have a piece of software that uses Access to store the data into a number of tables.
I am developing a new piece of software that has been built around SQL express and need to upgrade users that are using access. I have managed to write the installation to install etc and also the start of a script to insert all of the tables. I cant work out how to get the data into SQL express using a script.
Basically the access db (CentralDb) will be stored a a given location C:Program FilesCentralDB.mdb
The tables within the SQL version are indentical to access but i need a way of pulling out the information stored and putting it into SQL, and as there is no DTS i am becoming stuck on how to automate the process.
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance

I'm about to embark on writing some code in perl or VBscript that automatically synchronises a constantly updated Access database with an MSSQL database.
I know MSSQL has an import tool built into Enterprise manager but I'm wondering if theres a stored procedure that does this?
The way I'm thinking of doing it is to read the all the access tables into separate hash arrays and then INSERTing them into the MSSQL database after checking for any duplicates. This all sounds a bit time consuming (there are a large number of tables) and processor intensive.
If anyones done anything like this before, I'd love to hear their views......!
Thanks!

I am working on a project which involves migration of data from a Rdb database (which is remote )
to a SQL server.
I did a telnet to that machine and took the details of the schema and found there are 12 tables to be migrated,
and some of the tables have as many as 3 million records in it.
I wanted to try the ODBC to migrate. But I didnt find the Rdb option in the list of databases it has.
or can I write it to a flat file and then improt from there.
Please give me some idea on this
Thank You

Hello all:
I have gone through most of the question posed by people, about importing data from EXCEL sheet to some table using SQL server database. I have a slight variation of this problem.
My excel file contains some information apart from the normal data.
Lets say some 5-6 lines always gives me some info about the data, like its purpose, client info, date etc...
After this INFO my actually data start, which I want to load into table.
I have found some wizard for the same, "EMS SQL MANAGER 2005", which supports most of the file formats, and load data into the database.
But we are planning to not use this tool, instead everything should be done using TSQL.
If somebody can please gives me some idea how this problem can be tackle, it would be a great help. We won't be using any Third party tools, like scripting etc...
We want to stick with just TSQL for this problem.
Thanks a bunch,
sabegh

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.
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.

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?
View 1 Replies View RelatedHello,
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.
Any help and advice would be greatly appreciated.
Kind regards,
Lee
