Microsoft SQL Server Migration Assistant For Access: No Convert Schema Highlighted?
Dec 6, 2006
Hi all,
I downloaded the Microsoft SQL Server Migration Assistant for Access 4 weeks ago. Today, I tried this program for the first time. I added one Database with 3 Access 2003 Tables to the Access Metadata Explorer. I right clicked Databaes on the Access Metadata pane and did not see the "Convert Schema" highlighted!!!??? What is wrong with the program? How can I make it highlighted? Please help and advise.
Thanks in advance,
Scott Chang

I attempted to use SSMA to migrate a 2000 file format .mdb into SQL Server Express (and, as I've just purchased VS2005 Pro, into SQL Server Developer Edition).
The file is actually a backend, so nothing to migrate other than tables.
After several runs during which I received (and fixed up) some errors, the process runs smoothly with no errors or warnings, until it comes to the last step; migrating the data itself.
Data migration into 'parent' tables works fine. However, wherever I have data in a table with a foreign key relationship to any of the aforementioned 'parent' tables, it refuses to migrate it. The text of the error message will be very smiliar to the following (from the log):
[Datamigrator: Error] [464/7] [2007-09-23 14:18:54]: Exception: The INSERT statement conflicted with the FOREIGN KEY constraint "Branch$CompanyBranch". The conflict occurred in database "DPMTest", table "dbo.Company", column 'CompanyID'.
There is nothing wrong, so far as I can determine, with the relationships involved.
I can insert data into the tables using any of the following methods:
1. Directly in Access, in the source backend.
2. Using the original Access frontend application, attached to the source backend.
3. Using VB.Net forms I am developing, in the 'upsized' database.
4. Directly in the Management Studio, in the 'upsized' database.
None of these four methods complains in the least about the relationships which SSMA balks at.
I would be grateful for any ideas....thanks.

I've installed SQL 2005 Express Addition which created a default database using Windows Authentication -- MachineName/SQLEXPRES. I want to convert some access databases to sql server in the migration assistant, however, when I try to connect the migration assistant to the default database I can't find the database in the drop down box wizard? I'm perplexed? Please shed some light or point me to some articles that will help. Thanks.

Has anyone ever tried to use this free software to migrate an old ORACLE 8.1.7 database to SQL Server 2005? I was just wondering if there were any "gotchas" I should be aware of before hand.
Thanks,

I selected my source Oracle database and my target SQL Server database. I click the convert SQL button and it takes about 20 minutes to convert everything. Then what? The Migrate Data button is greyed out. I configured the linked server as is outlined in the instructions. The "Migrate Data" button is always greyed out.
I need to get this working soon so that I can convince the management team that moving to SQL Server is the way to go.
Thanks.

I'm trying to make the business case to move our business databases to SQL Server 2005 from Oracle 9i. The SQL Server Migration Assistant for Oracle will be absolutely necessary for this to happen. However, I am unable to launch the assistant. It tells me I have an old version of java installed - but I don't. It is a new XP machine and I downloaded and installed j2sdk-1_4_2_12-windows-i586-p.exe which did not help (I rebooted). Why does it think I have an old version and how can I get this assistant working.
Any help would be much appreciated.

I am trying to migrate an Access 2003 database to SQL Server 2005 and am having various problems:
1. On one table, the migration gives the following on an autonumber field:
A2SS0023: SQL Server Migration Assistant for Access Warning Message: Default value '0' added to target column (1), followed later on by
A2SS0028: Auto-increment attribute of the column 'MSEQ' was not converted to Identity because the column has a default value.
This table has about 80,000 records.
2. If I include another table in the migration, this one with 3.4 million records (hence our need to upgrade to SQL server 2005), I am getting a timeout error, even when I try to migrate the table by itself. I have verified that all timeout options are set to zero (unlimited time).
Any suggestions would be appreciated.

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..

Hello,We maintain a VB6 front-end application using an Access 2000 database. Allcode and forms are in VB6. The program also uses several queries/reportsdefined in Access. For corporate reasons we must move to SQL Server rightaway. Based on our configuration, we're hoping someone can give us a feelfor what's involved here. Since we're only using Access for the data we'renot sure what an "upsizing" would entail. Can someone point us in the rightdirection, tell us the main gotchas, etc. Thanks a lot.Teri Welch

I am in the process of migrating 40 access databases to SQL Server. I am migrating the tables to the backend. All of these databases are Identical in structure and purpose. The goal is to centralize all of the databases backends into one Sql server database, but the data needs to stay seperated by each location. So I added a location field to each table in the database; so that each locations data will be seperated by location. How do I go about filtering out the the data so that each location can only update, delete, an view their own data? (I dont mind a long answer.)

got some MS Access SQL Code that needs converting into TSQL:
SELECT dbo_qryMyServices.FormsServiceID,
dbo_qryMyServices.ServiceName, Sum(IIf(IsNull([CompletionDate]),0,1))
AS Completed,
Count([pkServiceID])-Sum(IIf(IsNull([CompletionDate]),0,1)) AS
Uncompleted, Count(dbo_MyServiceRequests.pkServiceID) AS TotalCount
FROM dbo_qryMyServices LEFT JOIN dbo_MyServiceRequests ON dbo_qryMyServices.FormsServiceID = dbo_MyServiceRequests.PostType
GROUP BY dbo_qryMyServices.FormsServiceID, dbo_qryMyServices.ServiceName
ORDER BY dbo_qryMyServices.ServiceName;
because it's Access and got VBA stuff in it - IIF and ISNULL, I can't figure out how to make it work in proper SQL.
Any help would be most appreciated!

I was really happy to see the Migration Assitant for transferring the Access2000 data to SQL 2005.
Unfortunately, during the migration wizard, when it comes to the window of "connect to SQL Server 2005" it gives an error. It says "Connection to SQL Server Failed. An error has occured while establishing connection to the server... also point out it could be SQL server not allowing remote connections (I checked), and something that says: provider: named pipes provider , error 40" ... I'm stuck at this window. Please please help?
you can email me directly if you wish to fh.erdogan(at)gmail.com
Thanks.
p.s. I have a fresh install of SQL Server 2005. All on the same machine.

I've been testing a variety of database schema migration tools. Ourcompany purchased Embarcadero Change Manager a while ago but we'vebeen less than satisfied with the results.We are looking for a tool that can compare a source/developer databasewith a target/client database and then make the necessary changes.The tool will need to update stored procedures, tables, indexes,constraints, etc. The tool will also need to make the changes in thecorrect order based on dependencies and relationships.Anyone have any recommendations?

hi,
I migrated the Northwind database using SQL Migration Assistant for Access. it worked fine and I was able to link the access forms to Local machine SQL Server 2005 and it worked fine.
Now i want to link the same Northwind access database to Another Server on the network.
When i try to run the wizard again, it won't migrate the user objects like tables to server, it will just create a database and that is it.
it will give me this error too.
No User objects were selected.
any idea,
Thanks,
Fahim

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

Hi guys,
I need to provide some of my users an easy way of accessing a SQL Server table through MS Access so
that they can edit the data in the table.
Please let me know which of the following is more appropriate to accomplish this task.
1. Creating a Data Access Page (OR)
2. Creating a Link Table
I tried to create a Data Access Page but I could only be able to see but not edit the data in the table. But, I
guess there is a way to do that.
Please throw some light on this topic.
Thanks a lot for your time.

Hi,
when I was sending 50 simultaneous connections to the web services, I got these 2 errors:
- "1[Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][DBNETLIB]SQL Server does not exist or access denied. "
- "An error has occurred while establishing a connection to the server. When connecting to SQL Server 2005, this failure may be caused by the fact that under the default settings SQL Server does not allow remote connections. (provider: TCP Provider, error: 0 - A connection attempt failed because the connected party did not properly respond after a period of time, or established connection failed because connected host has failed to respond.)"
Everything worked fine if I ran 10 simultaneous connections. I am using Microsoft ACT to load test the web service. The database is SQL Server 2000. Any idea about why this is happening?
Appreciate your help! Thanks!

I want to use SQL Server to query an Access Database with about 40,000 rows of data. If possible, I don't want to upsize the database because others need acess to it in the ACC97 format. Is there a way to use ODBC to connect to the ACC97 database so that I can use the SQL query capability of SQL server to query the database.
I know access allows you to write some SQL queries but I need the power of the SQL server and now it is a matter of curiosity because I've been searching for this answer for about 8 hours.

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)
