Is it possible to convert an access 2003 database to SQL without data lost (and more generaly, without lost of information about the database) and then, connect the customer Microsoft ACCESS program to the new SQL database without change in ACCESS program ?
Thanks a lot for your answer.
P.S.: if there is changes to make, what kind of change for example.
I have an existing VB6 application which uses an Access 2003 backend datafile, however, I would now like to modify this to use an SQL 2005 datafile, but I don't know how to go about this or the implications when the application is installed on another machine.
The code I use for accessing the Access 2003 file is below, I want to convert this code to access an SQL 2005 datafile instead, can anyone give me some pointers on the best way to go about this, or code sample.
Dim rst As ADODB.Recordset
Dim dbs As ADODB.Connection
Set rst = New ADODB.Recordset
Set dbs = New ADODB.Connection
dbs.Open "Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0; Data Source=" & _
strNetworkLocation & "MyDB.mdb; JET OLEDBatabase Password=MyPassword"
With rst
.Open "SELECT TOP 1 * FROM tblProject WHERE pjProject = '" & _
lstProject.Text & "'", dbs, adOpenKeyset, adLockOptimistic
strDrawingRef = !pjStartupDrawing
strProject = lstProject.Text
frmMain.OpenFile
.Close
End With
Thank-you in advance for any help you may provide.

I have a customer using a web app where the data is drawn from a database in SQL Server 2005.
In addition to its normal tables, the database has two lookup tables which are deleted, recreated, and repopulated once a week. The data for these two tables comes from two queries in an Access database which essentially turn many related tables into two flat tables.
I know this can be done with SSIS, I've done it, I suppose it could be done witth SSMA for Access, but could this operation be done with a stored prodecure ? Most steps would not be a problems. They would be:
- Drop the two tables in SQL Server (no problem)
- Recreate them (no problem, maybe better to just delete all existing records, either way)
- Connect to the query in the Access database (here is where I have questions)
- Simply do an INSERT from the Access query to the SQL table.
So my question is whether we can connect to an Acess query from a stored proc, I suppose using ODBC.
Can this be done? If so how? Are there any papers on this topic?
Msny thanks,
Mike Thomas
I am having a problem importing data from xls and access into my SQL2005 DB using SSIS. Would appreciate any help in getting this resolved.

Hi,
I have imported some tables from msaccess but as the datetime field from access is different from SQL Server I had to change all columns type from datetime to varchar...
Now in SQL Server i'm trying to convert this data into datetime, and I'm using cast(field as datetime) and sql give me this message..."The conversion of a char data type to a datetime data type resulted in an out-of-range datetime value."
how can I select these rows that are giving me errors ??? OR is there a way to convert this data ??
I don't know if in this data it will give the error... but as the table is too big...I can't post everything here...
------------------------------- EDIT
I got the problem...
I have data like 4/11/2006 9:23:19 AM and others like 11/21/2005 6:02:13 PM
So the first one 4/11/2006 9:23:19 AM it converts without problem, but wrongly...cause the month is "4" and not "11"
the other one 11/21/2005 6:02:13 PM it tries to convert the month as 21 and not as 11....
How can I solve this ??
I'm trying to pass a character (D) to an integer data type!i'm getting this error:Conversion failed when converting the varchar value '17D' to data type int.

We migrated a MS Access 2003 mdb into MS Access 2007. The mdb has linked tables to SQL Server via a DSN and utilizes a mdw file. In 2003, the username/password is "passed" to SQL Server, so the UID/PWD that is used for opening the mdb, is used in SQL Server.
Opening the same file in 2007 using the same mdw, gives a secondary login on SQL Server.
Is there a way to have MS Access 2007 pass the UID/PWD to SQL Server on linked tables, the same way that 2003 does?
Thanks!
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 developed a database with Access 2003 and everything was working good until my tech came in and reformated my hard drive and install a new Ghost image that met our company standards.
Now I cannot go in and make any changes to any of the tables, queries and forms. All of this started when a new Ghost image was installed on my pc.
The message I get when I try to open my database is "You do not have permission to run "tblSwitchboard." I get the same error message when I try to do anything at all on the database.
I am at a loss as to what to do. Please help.

Hello all, i hope someone that understands SQL can help me.
I have a report that runs from a access query, which is simple.
My problem is that i get an overflow error becuase one of the queries formulas are to divide some numbers and in this one instance there is a "0" involved.
My formula is:
Col2%: [Col 2 Hrs]/([TotHrs]-[Col 6 Hrs])
The problem is that [Col 2 Hrs]=0 this month for a specific employee.
In excel i know i can do
=IF([Col 2 Hrs]=0,"0",([Col 2 Hrs]/([TotHrs]-[Col 6 Hrs])))
and that works fine.
Can someone please show me how to do this in SQL so instead of returning an error it will display 0 or N/A.
Thanks inadvance
Hope i explained my issed well enough for everyone.
Is there a patch available for Access 2003 that will allow it to interoperate fully with SQL 2005?
View 1 Replies View RelatedHello,
I'm very new to MS SQL Server; I just downloaded Express 2005 yesterday. I have it up and running; it seems to be working fine.
Now onto business - I need to migrate data from existing MS Access 2003. How, exactly, do I do this? I've tried searching MSDN, TechNet, and here, and while I get results that seem to tell part of the story, I don't seem to get a true "How to" for this task.
Can someone please assist me with this?
Thank you.
I've a database in Access 2003 that I want to migrate to SQL CE since Pocket Access is no longer supported.

Is there a way to integrate Access 2003 as the Front End for SQL Express?
I tried, but I can't make a new Access project because I need to specify a login/pass and I have no idea what those are set to, or if I need to make an account somehow.
As you can see, I am totally new to SQL and any help would be appreciated.
Thank You,

Hi Experts,
I am extracting data from SQL Server 2005 to flat file destination. I am using SQL Command to specify the data selection query. One of my query uses Replicate function to derive a column value. When I execute this package it fails with the error "Data conversion failed. The data conversion for column "value" returned status value 4 and status text "Text was truncated or one or more characters had no match in the target code page".
The reason for the problem is that, it is taking the InputColumnWidth of the flat file destination as 8000 and I specified the OutputColumnWidth as 4.
If I change the OutputColumnWidth to 8000, it is working without any error but resulting in the column width of 8000.
I tried using DerivedColumn Transformation's Type cast and DataConversion Transformation but still I am getting the same error in the respective Transformation components.
Can anyone suggest how to solve this issue.
We use SQL Server 2000 on the back-end of our directory web site and ASP on the front end which works fine. However, for my own uses (since I don't create the asp and have to pay a programmer), would it be better to set up an Access 2003 project for my own data entry forms, standard reports and quick searching?
What would be the negatives of this approach. Remember, this is just for me.
Thanks in advance,

Hi all,
I have SQL Server 2005 Express running and I am creating a database through access (Access 2003 SP2) and no problem it creates the database...
But when I try to create other objects like views and database diagrams, I get the message below which is quite detailed but I just don't know where to get the service packs or updates needed to have this problem solved. Can anyone point out what the problem and the fixes are?
Here is the message that I get:
"This version of MS Office Access doesn't support design changes with the version of MS SQL Server
your access project is connected to. See MS Office Update Website for the latest information and
downloads (on the Help menu, click Office on the Web). YOur design changes will not be saved.
You have connected to a version of SQL server later than SQL Server 2000. This version of Visual Studio
or Access that you are using was released before teh version of SQL Server to which you are connected.
For this reason you might encounter problems.
Please check with MS to see if there is a service pack that you should apply to Visual Studio or Office
in order to get support for the version of SQL Server to which you are connected.
You can continue but any new object types might not be enumerated, and it will not be possible to
save any objects or database diagrams thatyou create using the Visual Database Tools."
Thanks
I am a fresher in using SQL with access.
I am using a code in Ms access to link a table that is in Sql express 2005.
I use this linked table name to download records to the local Access table.
The link is then dropped in Access.
Is there any way to write back records into the linked Sql table from Access.
It does not allow me to delete / add / modify records of a linked table.
How can I do this.
Thanks

I am trying to configure a bulk table upload from a 2003 Access table to a matching table in SQL with SSIS. I can configure the source file but am unable to configure the destination. When I configure the SQL source and use SQL Native Client I get an error message of:
The selected connection manager uses an earlier version of a SQL server provider. Bulk insert requires a connection that uses a SQL server 2005 provider.
When I go through the new connection setup I don't see any available provider named like that. I believe the SQL server I am loading to is a 2003 version.
I recently started developing a new Access project for a client, and decided to try out Access 2003 with SQL Express 2005. Everything was going fine until I tried to modify a table from within Access. I got an error message that SQL Express is incompatible with Access 2003, and it suggested I go to the Microsoft website and search for a patch/upgrade to solve this.
I tried to ignore it, and it started warning me that none of my table edits would be saved.
I looked around, but I can't find anything about this.
Is this true? Is there a patch to fix this?
How can I avoid the error?

hello guys,
i am using MS SSEE installed by WSUS3.
Due to a server reinstallation and new synchronisation of WSUS i have to approve/reject nearly 1200 Updates for Windows XP/Vista/Server 2003 and different Office Versions.
The new MMC lost some features to do this easyly (Filters)
Because of these missing functions i intend to install "Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio Express" to get connection to the SSEE and then create an Access-Frontend to add the functions i am missing.
Could you please tell me if this might work?
Somwhere in this forum i read, that the SSEE was intend to be not accessable.

How can make link to a table stored in an sql express 2005 database in access 2003 ? the classic method doesen't work. i tried to use odbc databases as file type to link, then build a data source using SQL native clint driver, but in the combo for default database i don't have the database created before, only master,msdb, model, tempdb. If i try to use the attach database filename text box i receive an error "the datadase entered is not valid". Any suggestions ?
Thx
Hi All,
Just installed a new version of SQL2005 on a brand new Application Server.
However, when i fired up Access 2003, it gives me some chaos about how Access isn't compatible with SQL2005. Fantastic lack of backward compatibility straight out the box.
Ok, so I do as it says and download all the updates.
Try again... Still won't allow me.
Wen't to Control Panel > Data Sources and confirmed the Native Client is in there. Added a System DSN for the new Server.
Tried Access again, still not working?? What the...
Why can't I create a new project in Access 2003, and edit it from my desktop instead of sitting on the server for every table modification? I hate designing tables on the SQL studio.
Any clues or help would be great. I'm just disappointed at the moment, on how this is holding up my database projects.
Thanks,
Chris.
Hello,
I am trying to update some SQL-linked tables in my Access database by repoiting the existing linked tables to a new datasource. The problem is, when I go to select the machine data source where the table sits, I get an error message saying the MS Jet Database can't find the object. This is because when Access creates the linked table, it replaces the period in the <schema>.<table_name> with an underscore. So when I go to update the links, it is essentially looking for the new table with the wrong file name.
I have about 80 linked tables to update and I haven't been able to figure a work-around. HELP PLEASE!
Cheers,
Josh
I continue to receive an error that states "The version of Microsoft Access doesn't support design changes with the version of Microsoft SQL Server your Access project is connected to. See the Microsoft update website for the latest information."
I'm using Access 2003 that I ran a database through the Upzinging Wizard with a copy of SQL Server 2005.
I have searched the Office Update pages and can't locate anything that helps, although I'm sure I'm probably missing something.
Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance,
