Linked Table From SQL 2005 To Access Error...

Jan 15, 2008

I'm trying to set up a linked table from SQL Server 2005 to MS Access. The .mdb file resides on a network share and I'm unable to connect to it. If i copy the database to a folder on the server that SQL is installed, it works fine. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Below is the error message that I'm receiving.

TITLE: Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio

Can't Add A Linked Table To SQL Server 2005 With Access 2003

Oct 26, 2006

Hi,

I have an Access 2003 front end that contains a number of linked tables on SQL Server 2005 SE. I recreated the application on a second network for testing and was able to use the Linked Table Manager to refresh the database connections. The problem is when I try and add another linked table. I select Link Tables from the menu and then when I select 'ODBC Databases()' from the 'Files of Type' list box, the Link window closes right away.



Any suggestions?

SQl 2005 Express - Linked Server - Access ADP - MSDASQL Error

Jan 8, 2008

Hi everyone,

I'v finally managed to get a New Linked Server setup on SQL 2005 Express SP2 using the 'Microsoft OLE DB Provider for ODBC Drivers' MSDASQL. I have a Database setup on the SQL 2005 Express Database Engine which contains a query that OPENQUERY's the linked server. The query executes OK.

The problems in when I link an Access 2003 SP2 .adp file to the SQL 2005 Database Engine database. All objects, including the query containing the OPENQUERY (to the linked server) appear. However, when I run the same query within Access I get the following error:

"The OLE DB Provider for Linked Server "name" reported an error."
"The Provider reported an unexpected catastropic failure"

So the query works running within SQL 2005 Management Studio, but the same query doesn't work running within an Access 2003 SP2 ADP. I've closed down SQL 2005 Management Studio, but the same error is displayed.

I didn't know if the problem lies in Access 2003 SP2 or SQL 2005 Express SP2.

Any takers?? (I haven't logged this Thread in an Access forum)

Any assistance is appreciated.

Unexpected Error From External Database Driver (MS Access Linked Table)

Oct 19, 2006

OS: Windows XP (SP2)
App: MS Access 2003 (SP2)
DB: MS SQL 2000 (SP4, 2040)

User is using MS Access linked table to query database (using ODBC). User can open the query in MS Access. However when the user goes to export the data to MS Excel format, the user receives the error message:

"Unexpected Error from External Database Driver (22)."

A trace on the db, reveals that the user process is attempting to log in to the server as 'Admin'. However, when the query with the linked table is first opened, the user is prompted for username/password (non Windows authentication).

Any ideas? I googled and found some stuff, but nothing directly related and most of what I found was supposedly fixed with SP1.

Any help appreciated. I am not an Access guru.

Regards,

Users' Access Linked Table From ACCESS To SQL 7.0 By ODBC

Jan 12, 2000

Hi Everyone,

I have set up a link from ACCESS to a SQL 7.0 database using ODBC (File DSN saved on a shared DRIVE). The link works well only from the workstation where the link was created. But How can I create a link so a group of users can view the linked table in ACCESS without type a password? Any suggestion is appreciated.

Append Query From Access Table To Linked SQL Server Table Failing

Jun 18, 2004

Strange one here - I am posting this in both SQL Server and Access forums

Access is telling me it can't append any of the records due to a key violation.

The query:

INSERT INTO dbo_Colors ( NameColorID, Application, Red, Green, Blue )
SELECT Colors_Access.NameColorID, Colors_Access.Application, Colors_Access.Red, Colors_Access.Green, Colors_Access.Blue
FROM Colors_Access;

Colors_Access is linked from another MDB and dbo_Colors is linked from SQL Server 2000.

There are no indexes or foreign contraints on the SQL table. I have no relationships on the dbo_ table in my MDB. The query works if I append to another Access table. The datatypes all match between the two tables though the dbo_ tables has two additional fields not refrenced in the query.

I can manually append the records using cut and paste with no problems.

I have tried re-linking the tables.

Any ideas?
Thanks,
Brad

Updating A Linked Table In Access

May 26, 1999

I currently have a database that I can update in Microsoft Access by going into datasheet view of the table and just changing the value of a given field.

Here is the problem. I have made a copy of this database by backing it up and restoring to a new database. Now when I go into Access datasheet view to update, I get the following error: "ODBC--update on a linked table '<tablename>' failed". I have tried restoring to a database on the same server as well as others and have checked for differences set for each database as well as differneces in indexes. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance

Linked Server To Access 97 - Error 7399

Oct 16, 2000

Hi all,

I have built several Linked Servers from my SQLServer 7 database to some Access 97 MDB files sitting on a Novell file server. When I am physically sitting at the SQLServer I can access/modify data through the links just fine. I have successfully built views, stored procs and jobs referencing these links and they all work perfectly ... As long as I am sitting at the SQLServer. So if I execute 'Select * from RT1...Emp' I get data back.

Now my problem. If I connect to the server from Query Analyser on a different machine I can not execute and anything that references a linked server. If I execute 'Select * from RT1...Emp' I get.

Server: Msg 7399, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
OLE DB provider 'Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0' reported an error
[OLE/DB Provider returned message: DIsk or Network error.]

I want to be able access various views and stored procs via a VB app so. Eventually I will be moving all of the Access data into the SQLServer but for now I must access the data via links.

Any ideas?

Access Linked To SQL Server - 2 Day Offset Error

Jul 20, 2005

We recently translated the backend db from Access(97) to SQL Server.We are still using Access frontends. I have an update query in theAccess front end that uses a lookup table to populate fields. Thecommon fields between the table and the lookup table are the primarykey (LocID) and date & time fields. The query is:UPDATE tblPT_Offsets INNER JOIN tblPT ON tblPT_Offsets.LocID =tblPT.LocID SET tblPT.Offset_ft = [tblPT_Offsets].[Offset_ft],tblPT.Salinity = [tblPT_Offsets].[Salinity]WHERE (((tblPT.Offset_ft) Is Null) AND ((tblPT.Salinity) Is Null) AND((Format([Date]+[Time],"mm/dd/yy hh:nn")) Between [StartDate] And[EndDate]));This worked fine in Access and seemed to work fine after switching toAccess, but on closer look, there is exactly a 2 day error beingintroduced. A quick search of the newsgroups brings up lots of Accessto SQL date problems, but a 2 day offset seems rather strange? Anyideas??I know the field names Date and Time are inappropriate, but legacyissues are a pain in the butt to resolve!! Could this be a problem?David

DTS Execute SQL Task On Access Linked Table

Mar 11, 2004

Can the DTS execute SQL task recognize a table in an Access database that is linked from another Access database?

I'm attempting to use a DTS Execute SQL task connected to Access1.mdb to make a new table in Access1.mdb that is using a Subquery from a linked table in Access2.mdb . (I know it sounds convoluded..) Its giving me an error in my FROM clause as if it can't recognize the linked table from Access2.mdb.

The reason why I'm doing this is that I'm not sure how to run an Access make table query from DTS that will overwrite the existing table in Access. I get an error that the table already exists.

Any Help?

Access - SQL Server Linked Table : Insert Failed

Oct 12, 2000

Good afternoon one and all,

I have the folowing problem that I could use some help with :

I have an SQL server database acting as a back end to an access dbase. The SQL srv table contains over 32 million records and I am trying to use an append query (in access) to import a further 2 million records to the SQLSRV table. The append query fails with the message 'Insert on table bcdsales failed' followed by an ODBC timeout error message. I can append one record fine but a mass import fails.

Unfortunately i can't use SQL srv to do the import (internal policy says we must stick with access front end for now).

Any and all ideas welcomed.

TIA for your time and attention

Configuring A Linked Microsoft Access Database On SQL Server 2005

Nov 7, 2007

The following installation:

- Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Standard Edition running on Microsoft Windows Server 2003 Standard Edition
- Client Service for Netware installed.
- Access 2000 database in a Novell Directory Services (NDS) Environment
- SQL Server service running under local Administrator account.


Linked server configured as follow:

Linked server: MyDB
Provider: Microsoft Jet 4.0 OLE DB Provider
Product name: Access 2000
Data Source: UNC path to my Access database

Security: Admin with no password (default Access behaviour)

I can connect to my access database by following the next steps:

- Open Management studio on the SQL Server itself (where I'm logged in as Administrator)
- Connect using Windows Authentication (Administrator)
- Create a new query, run EXEC sp_tables_ex 'MyDB'

This will return all the tables from the Access database.

I can also make a view pointing to MyDB...MyTable.

Enough prove to me It can work....

So far so good


But now the tricky part.

When I login as 'sa', I can't connect and will receive the following message:

OLE DB provider "Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0" for linked server "MyDB" returned message "'Full UNC to my access database' is not a valid path. Make sure that the path name is spelled correctly and that you are connected to the server on which the file resides.".Msg 7303, Level 16, State 1, Procedure sp_tables_ex, Line 41Cannot initialize the data source object of OLE DB provider "Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0" for linked server "MyDB".


(In real life I want to connect to my SQL 2005 Server from a ASP.NET (2.0) application using SQL authentication, but as long as I can't get the above working this is not important for now)

VFPOLEDB Provider Access Denied Error On Linked Server

Apr 11, 2008

Hallo
i'm trying to connect a VFP DBC as a linked server on MSSQL2000sp3a, using following parameters:


Product name: VFP

Data source: \networkpath odbc

Provider: VFPOLEDB.1

No security context
I'm trying the same operation both from a W2000sp4 server (+ MDAC 2.8sp1 ?) and a WXPPsp2, against two identical copies of the DBC that resides on two different path (one on the final path and one on a test path).
From WXPPsp2 everything runs ok, from W2000 i'm always getting this error:
Error 7399: OLE/DB Provider 'VFPOLEDB' IUnknown::QueryINterface returned 0x80070005: Access Denied
(already reported in this thread, http://forums.microsoft.com/MSDN/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=1832362&SiteID=1 but it didn't helped me)

The error happens independently from the user the query runs under (basicly AD account, both domain admin and normal user).
MSSQL runs under a domain account which have full permissions (for test purpose) on the directories where DBC reside.

I did no further modifications on the WXP machine in order to have the linked server running, simply it ran smoothly from the beginning.

Clearly the difference rely on the different OS... but what else?

i ran component checker to determine the MDAC version but some components version numbers slightly differs from the expected ones (eg. resulting version is 2.0.1064 versus 2.0.1022 expected in MDAC 2.8) so i suppose to have MDAC2.8 sp1 on the server.
thanks in advance

VFPOLEDB For Linked Server Reported An Error. Access Denied

Jul 8, 2007

Hi Cindy,
After hours (days?) researching this, your name keeps popping up, you must be the GOTO person for VFP. So:

We have a server that runs a VFP application and stores .dbf free tables in a directory shared as F:apps ele.

I am working on an XPPro box running SQL Server Express 2005 using Management Studio Express.

I am logged on as a user with administrator rights for the domain

We would like to be able to query this data and move it to our SQL tables as needed.

Here is what I have:

EXEC sp_addlinkedserver @server = 'tele',
@srvproduct = 'VFP',
@provider = 'VFPOLEDB',
@datasrc = 'F:apps ele',
@provstr = 'VFPOLEDB.1'
GO

SELECT * FROM tele...PROSPECT_DIVU

Here is what I get:

Msg 7399, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
The OLE DB provider "VFPOLEDB" for linked server "tele" reported an error. Access denied.
Msg 7301, Level 16, State 2, Line 1
Cannot obtain the required interface ("IID_IDBCreateCommand") from OLE DB provider "VFPOLEDB" for linked server "tele".

I have tried:

exec sp_addlinkedsrvlogin
@rmtsrvname = 'tele',
@useself = false,
@locallogin = NULL,
@rmtuser = 'admin',
@rmtpassword = NULL
go

Same result.

I have also tried:

EXEC sp_addlinkedserver
'tele2',
'Jet 4.0',
'Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0',
'F:apps ele',
NULL,
'dBase IV'
GO

When I run:

select * from tele2...prospect_divu

I get:

OLE DB provider "Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0" for linked server "tele2" returned message "The Microsoft Jet database engine could not find the object 'prospect_divu'. Make sure the object exists and that you spell its name and the path name correctly.".
Msg 7311, Level 16, State 2, Line 1
Cannot obtain the schema rowset "DBSCHEMA_COLUMNS" for OLE DB provider "Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0" for linked server "tele2". The provider supports the interface, but returns a failure code when it is used.

What would you suggest?

Access Crashes Filtering A Linked SQL Table On A Date Field

Jun 29, 2006

I have an MS Access 2002 application that is distributed to a number of PCs around our office. The data for this application is stored on a central SQL Server that is linked in through ODBC.

This application has been in place for two years and working fine. We recently formatted and restored a PC, and now that particular PC has issues with the Access application.

Every time it tries to filter one of the linked SQL tables on a date field, Access goes unresponsive and GPFs out. If it's in a query that is behind a report, I get the old standard 'Catastrophic Failure'. If I open the table and right-click filter or run a query manually, Access GPFs.

I've tried recreating the ODBC, linking the tables through TCP/IP as well as Named Pipes. Nothing fixes it. All Windows and Office updates have been applied. This is not the first time we've reformatted a PC in the office, but we've never had this issue.

Has anyone run across this before?

Thanks!

-Ben

HOWTO Insert Into ACCESS Linked Table Via OLE DB Destination Task

Jun 22, 2007

I have used an access linked table to import data from a sharePoint list hosted on SharePoint 2007 server.



I hope someone else has done this. (1)I Does anyone know of any other way to pull data from a SharePoint 2007 list.



(2)Has anyone pushed data to a SharePoint List from a SQL Server table?



I tried doing that via the linked table but the destination task of the data flow task does not allow me to push data into the table.



(3) Has anyone designed an SSIS package to write data to an AccESS table from a SQL Server table?

SQL Svr 2005 Nvarchar(MAX) Interpreted As TEXT Fiields When Linked To MS Access 2003

Apr 4, 2008



Hi, We have moved our Access 2003 database to SQL Server 2005. A number of the original tables contained MEMO fields and these became nvarchar(MAX) fields in SS 2005. We continue to use the original Access application and therefore have linked the tables to the Access application via ODBC connection. However, the fields that were originally Memo in Access native tables are brought over as TEXT fields (255 char limit) by the linking process.

Is there a way I can link the tables and have those big text fields be Memo fields in the linked tables?? Or is there some way to work around this? (Moving to Access 2007 is not an option at this time.) I would really appreciate any suggestions!
Thanks.

Connecting To An Access DB Using Linked Server Gives The Error, System Resource Exceeded

Oct 18, 2007



I am using SQL 2000 (Standard Edition, SP4) and have created a linked server to access a Access MDB file. When I run a simple query against that server, I get the error:

Server: Msg 7399, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
OLE DB provider 'Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0' reported an error.
[OLE/DB provider returned message: System resource exceeded.]
OLE DB error trace [OLE/DB Provider 'Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0' ICommandText::Execute returned 0x80004005: ].

I am able to connect to this same Access MDB file from another SQL server (SQL 2000 Enterprise Edition, SP4). I have compared the two servers and they both have the same version of MDAC (2.8) and the same version of the Jet OLE DB Provider.

Any idea why this would work from one server and not from the other. Also, I was able to perform the same queries from the first server a week back.

Thanks in advance for you help.

Distributed Query From SS 2000 To Access Catalog Views On SS 2005 Via Linked Server

Aug 24, 2006

I am trying to write some admin only procedures which will collect information to one of my development server from other production and development servers.
 
I have created linked servers to access these other servers on the development server. This development server is SQL Server 2000 EE. Other servers which I want to access are 2000 and 2005 (vaious editions)
 
E.g I have another development server called PRODTEST which is SQL Server 2005 and on the development server I have created a linked server pointing to PRODTEST called TESTLINKSRV. I want to access new object catalog view (as I do not want to use sysobjects)
 
When I run the following query
 
SELECT * FROM [TESTLINKSRV].[DBNAME].[sys].[objects]
 
I get following error,
 
OLE DB error trace [Non-interface error:  OLE DB provider does not contain the table: ProviderName=' TESTLINKSRV ', TableName='" DBNAME "."sys"."objects"'].
 
Msg 7314, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
 
OLE DB provider ' TESTLINKSRV ' does not contain table '"DBNAME"."sys"."objects"'.  The table either does not exist or the current user does not have permissions on that table.
 
So I try this query
 
SELECT * FROM [TESTLINKSRV].[DBNAME].[sys.objects]
 
and I get following error
 
Msg 208, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
 
Invalid object name TESTLINKSRV.DBNAME.sys.objects'.
 
So bottom line is how do I access catalog views on a 2005 server from a 2000 server using linked server?
 
I hope someone understands what I am trying to achieve. Please let me know what is it that I am doing wrong.
Thank you

Linked Server Error From SQL 2005 X64 To X32

SQL 2005: Unable To Edit Linked Table Records

Hi!I am able to add records to my SQL 2005 database using bound forms in myAccess application, but if I try to edit any records (not only the newrecords I create) using the same bound forms, I receive a write conflict.For the record, I am currently the only user of this application and my SQLServer database has only one userID. I used this userID to create all ofthe objects in the database and to connect to the database from Access. Thedata sources for the bound forms are linked tables, the record source typeis set to "Dynaset" and the record locks are set to "No Locks". "Opendatabases using record-level locking" is checked.The write error says that another user has changed the current record sinceit was opened (since I'm currently the only user this isn't possible) andasks me to copy my changes to the clipboard or drop the changes.Can anyone suggest what might be causing this?

Oracle Linked Server Connection Error After Upgrading To SQL 2005

Mar 14, 2007

Hello all.

I upgraded a SQL 2000 installation to SQL 2005 this past weekend. Minimal issues overall, but one that did crop up relates to a linked server to an Oracle database. The linked server worked before the upgrade, and stopped working immediately after.

We're running on Windows 2003 x64, latest service pack. The linked server is set up using the MSDAORA provider. The error I'm getting post-upgrade is:

=====================

OLE DB provider "MSDAORA" for linked server "PROD" returned message "ORA-06413: Connection not open.".

Msg 7303, Level 16, State 1, Procedure RDM_GET_REP_LIST_SP, Line 12

Cannot initialize the data source object of OLE DB provider "MSDAORA" for linked server "PROD".

=====================

A tnsping from the server works fine. I've also tried recreating the linked server. Any help would be appreciated. Let me know what other information would be useful.

Thanks,

Importing Access Table Into SQL Server 2005 Express Table And Adding One Field

Feb 16, 2007

Hi all,

Hopefully I am posting this question in the correct forum. I am still learning about SQL 2005. Here is my issue. I have an access db that I archive weekly into and SQL server table. I have used the dst wizard to create an import job and initally that worked fine. field I have as the primary key in the access db cannot be the primary key in the sql table since I archive weekly and that primary key field will be imported several time over. I overcame this initally by not having a primary key in the sql table. This table is strictly for reference. However, now I need to setup a unique field for each of the records in the sql table. What I have done so far is create a recordID field in the sql table that is an int and set as yes to Identify (auotnumber). That worked great and created unique id for all existing records. The problem now is on the import. When I try to import the access table i am getting an error because of the extra field in the sql table, and the error is saying cannot import null value into this field. So... my final question is how can I import the access table into the sql table with one extra field which is the autonumber unique field? Thanks a bunch for any asistance.
