MS Access 2000 Link SQL 2K Tables
Apr 24, 2001
Anyone has any idea why I havethis problem?
I have a SQL 2K database on a named instance with tables populated with data and they have no relations between them.
I have a MS Access 2000 database.
I have a system ODBC connection on the client computer to the SQL 2K using trusted connection.
I linked the tables into MS Access 2000 to SQL 2K and I can read the data without any problem.
When I try to update the data on the table, I get the message : The recordset is not updatable.
I am the DBO. So I am supposed to have all rights. All the select, update, insert and DRI rights are enabled.
I tried it with another user and it does not work either.
Anyone has an idea?
Thanks

When trying to link to an SQL table in Access 2003, the software appears to be malfunctioning.
The sequence of events is File - Get External Data - Link Tables - Files of Type: ODBC Databases().
The Problem: On two of my computers, the select data source window does not pop up, preventing me from linking to any ODBC data source.
Observations: This function has worked normally in the recent past and works on other computers running Access 2003. One difference between the computers working and non-working computers is Norton Antivirus 2006 (recent upgrade).
Has anyone experienced anything like this? What's going on?

Hi All
My manager told me to link SQL Server database tables to access so that he can access the tables in MSAccess to do his SQL queries.
I am thinking of linking server but I am not sure about that.
Is someone can tell me what to do and explain me how.
Thanks in advance
Sincerely.

Hello All,
I am new to this forum and hope that some one can help me with this problem.
I know that in MS Access you can have a linked table in your databse such that as long a the like is not broken, it behaves similar to any other table in the database.
My problem is that I need to do the same thing for multiple databases that I have on a MS SQL Server that ALL currently have copies of the same table in common.
I wish to have a single table that they all share and have access to just link any other table that they currently have but is actually linked.
Can this be done?
And if so, then could someone please guide me in this?
My logic is that if MS Access can link tables then I could suspect that MS SQL Server should be able to also, but I could be wrong.
Thanks in advance,
Lonnie

I have upsized an Access database into SQL Server and manged to getthe data in place ok. The wizard created an Access Project which Ihave started to modify.However, I am also trying to get data from an AS/400. Specifically fora currency/exchange rate file. I only want ot copy the records sincethe last copy otherwise there are a vast number of records.I have created a linked server to the AS/400 within SQL Server, andcreated a view, within my specific database which allows me to look atall the data in the table.However, my problem is that I want a VB routine, in the AccessProject, which lets me copy out specic records from the view into atable within the SQL Server database. Any clues?????My oroginal code used a link to the AS/400 and the folowing code:-s = "INSERT into zacjdf00 "s = s + "select CJCNCD, CJD5E9, CJCUCD, CJD5FF, CJD5FG, CJD5FH,CJD5FI, CJD5FJ, CJD5FK "s = s + "from XGHLDTM_ZACJDF00 "s = s + "where "s = s + "CJD5E9 = '" & group & "'"DoCmd.RunSQL (s)group is preset in the VB code.

I have created an Access2003 project (existing data) that links to external data. First I connected to a SQL Server 2000 database. Success. Then I tried to set up a Transact SQL data connection to a legacy MDW-secured Access97 database. (A third-party VB6 application goes against it, and we don't have the source code, so we cannot upgrade it.)
The Transact SQL link tests OK but I cannot select any of the tables or queries from the list presented. However, with the same credentials, I can use these same objects in Excel 2003.
When setting up the link in Access2003, I specify JET 4.0 OLE DB Provider, I enter the MDW file on the All tab, a username and a password on the Connection tab where I browse to the MDB file, and specify Shared Deny None on the Advanced tab. When I test the connection, it tests OK ("Test connection succeeded"). Yet on the "Select the Database and Table/Cube which contains the data you want" dialog, "(Default)" appears in the grayed-out dropdown. Then, beneath that dropdown, there is a grid with Name and Description columns. The grid contains query names but the grid is not enabled. The list of queries is this table is grayed out. Neither of the scrollbars works.
BUT... if I use the SAME username and password in Excel2003, and specify the same MDW, there is no problem working with these same database objects in the legacy Access97 database. WHAT IS DIFFERENT ABOUT THE WIZARD IN EXCEL THAT ALLOWS IT TO SUCCEED AND THE WIZARD IN ACCESS THAT CAUSES IT TO FAIL HERE? In Excel, the list of available providers says Microsoft Access Driver, not JET 4.0 OLE DB Provider.
Thanks

I've created a small company database where the tables reside in a SQLServer database. I'm using Access 2000 forms for a front end.I've got a System DSN set-up to SQL Server and am using links withinAccess 2000 to get to the SQL Server tables.My forms worked fine until I made a few minor changes to the databaseschema on SQL Server (e.g. added a foreign key, or added a column).After that, all the links break - I click on a table link and get anerror msg like "invalid object name."Deleting the links after a schema change and re-adding the links seemedto fix the problem. The forms I'd already created seemed to work fineafter re-creating the links.But then I got more advanced with my forms. I have it set up so thatfor certain entry fields, the combobox gets populated with values froma table (the description appears in the drop-down and the correspondingprimary key value gets populated in the table). I created a number offorms using this technique, entered data, and everything worked fine.Made a small schema change and it broke everything -- not the actualtable links, but the functionality for the drop-downs. My values nolonger appeared, and this was true for forms that accessed tables whoseschemas did not change.This is driving me nuts. Is there any way to keep my forms frombreaking each time I make a small schema change?Thanks.- Dana

Hi, I need to link an Access 97 database to sql server 2000. I can't use Enterprise Manager so I have created a simple asp.net page using sp_addlinkedserver and sp_addlinkedsrvlogin.
The mdb file is on a network share, then I have permissions problems: here is a sample
sp_addlinkedserver 'test', 'Access 97', 'Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0',
'\SVKNFS080Pshareaccess97db1.mdb', 'efco'
sp_addlinkedsrvlogin 'test', false, 'sa', 'Admin', NULL
I have no problems executing these stored procedures (the linked server is added in sysservers table), but when I try to query the access database
SELECT * FROM test...profile
I get this error
Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][SQL Server][OLE/DB provider returned message:
The Microsoft Jet database engine cannot open the file '\SVKNFS080Pshareaccess97dboutlet.mdb'. It is already opened exclusively by another user, or you need permission to view its data.]
The mdb file is not locked, I think is a permission's problem.
Can anyone help me ?
Thanks in advance

Please help
We have an application written in MS Access. The tables are linked to a SQL 2000 database.
The problem is that sometimes insert a new record in a table freezes and times out after a while without anything has happened.
When installing the application the *mdb file is copied over to the C drive and an ODBC connection is written to the registry.
The application is used by many in the company.
We have problems on tables defined with IDENTITY columns. Can this be our problem and how can we solve it?

I am using two almost idential laptops, one with XP and one with Vista, the only differences is that the XP laptop has 1G of RAM and running Office XP and the Vista has 2G RAM and is running Office 2007.
I have a MS Access database that has linked tables to a SQL Server 2000 database. The performance of the Access database on Vista is 5-10 times slower on the Vista machine. Just flipping through records or opening forms can take 5 - 15 seconds on the Vista machine while the XP machine takes 1 sec or less.
What gives? I looked at the CPU performance and the network performance while the Access database was busy flipping through records, the network traffic was < 2% and the CPU would spike to 40% on one of the CPUs (dual core) but would remain under 5% most of the time.
I also previously had Office XP installed on the Vista machine and it had the same performance issue so bought and install Office 2007 on the Vista machine and it did not solve the problem.
It seems that Vista is doing something that is slowing down Access with linked tables. Is this a issue between Vista and using an ODBC connection to SQL Server?
Thanks in advance for any help on this

I am working from within an SQL database trying to get data from an MS Access Database as a linked server. I can "successfully" add the linked server, but when I try to open it from SQL EM I get "Error 7399. . . " from Microsoft Jet. When I try to query it from QA I get "Could not initialize data source object of OLE DB provider 'Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0'. [OLE/DB provider returned message: Not a valid account name or password.]"
I tried both Access 2000 databases and '97. Same results for each. Big project pending . . . any help is appreciated!

I work extensively with Access; I have a new project with very large tables (as many as 15 million records). Is it worth my while to link Access to SQL Express if both are on the same machine?
I've downloaded SQL Express and installed it, but it won't let me link to Access 2003. Is there an update or patch to Access 2003 that will make this work?
If I do make the link successfully, will it be transparent - that is, can I work in Access as I always have, or would I have to learn how to create databases and queries in SQL? (I do know that I can make tables in Access and migrate them to SQL Server).
Where would I find simple step-by-step instructions to do this - my interest is more in the substance of my data analysis than in programming per se.

Hello,
I think I may be going a little bit mad. Last week I created a database on SQL Server. I then created an access database on a different windows server, and set up an ODBC connection on that windows server to my database on SQL Server. I then set up linked tables within Access to point to my tables on the SQL Server. I'm fairly sure that I opened those links at the time and managed to display and update the data from Access. However I have come to this today and when I go into the Access database and attempt to open one of the links I get a connection failed message. When I check the ODBC connection on the windows server it is fine. Does anyone have any ideas on this? I really need this to be working by tomorrow to do a demo, and I'm so convinced it worked last week I am a little bemused!
Many many thanks in advance of your wonderful and prompt replies!!! :)

I have a problem that I want to solve by linking MS Access to SQL Server 2000 or 2005.
The problem is a 3 party MS Access '97 application that is no longer supported so a new system is currently being built in SQL Server. The Access database has a UI for small amounts of input and viewing but most of the work is done through a WaveLink application. The Wavelink application allows users on the shop floor via wireless devices to pick and count product which then updates Access. There has always been record locking issues that caused some delays at the wireless devices but nothing dramatic. Until now. The wireless network and wireless devices have been upgraded and now record locking (I presume that whats causing the problems) is now causing large productivity delays requiring constant intervention.
The Wavelink application is also being updated from VB6 to VB.Net to work with the new SQL Server application. One of the requests from the client is that the Wavelink upgrade somehow fix the problem with the Access database.
My idea was to link the Access database to a SQL Server so that the wireless devices go through SQL Server to Access hopefully taking the load off Access. Is this possible? Would SQL Server prevent the record locks and provide a better multi user environment or is that something that is inherent in OLEDB Jet and linking is not going to circumvent this problem?

Hi All,
I have recently migrated from Access to SQL Server. I have come across a strange problem. I have got a table in my database whihc is not linked to any other table, but does include data and is used from time to time for reports. It is more used as a sort of lookup table. Now I had the frontend in Access and I have retained it. So I connect all the SQL Server tables via ODBC to Access. The problem with this table is for some reason it wont allow to add new records on Access side. You can just view the contents, but cannot add anything to it e.g a new record, etc. I tried giving explicit permissions of Select, Insert, update, etc. but still no result. There are other look up tables as well, that have the same problem. Can anybody tell me why this is so and is there any way to fix it?

Hello all, I have a quick question. Is it possible to create linked tables in MS SQL, similar to the was MS Access does?
I have a new application(x) that is going to be dependant on another application(y). I just want to link 5 or 6 tables from y into x for the purpose of not duplicating information. Is this possible?
I apologize if I seem a little lacking in the knowledge of MS SQL, I am new to it and trying to figure it out. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Dan

Hi all,
I would like to simply link two tables that are in two different databases in the SAME server.
I know that I could use the replication method (snapshot or merge) but I need a simpler method like the Access link table method.
Any suggestions?
