Migrating MS Access Data To SQL Express Data

Feb 17, 2007

Hi all,

We have access database with lots of data in it. I want to move all the dat to the new database which has completely differenet database structure (e.g different tables, different rows).

What I was thinking is that there are 2 ways. one is manually, which will take long tome probably, and the other is to rum queries that will move the data from access to the new sql express. The question is how to that. I know that I used onw CSV files exported for ms access, but now the queries will be much more complex and I will use more then one table for te query.

How can I query from 2 different databases, which from one I read data(access), and from the other I write data (express)?

Thanks alot.

Need Help In Migrating From Access To SQL Express

Feb 21, 2007

Hi there,

I am totally new at SQL/SQL express.I have downloaded the sQL express server and wanted to know how i can go about exporting my tables which i created using MS access into SQL express.

Also my application is currently working by using Access and ASP...what will be the changes i would need to incorporate in my code other than the queries and Data connection string.

How would the data connection string in SQL look like if i am using it in my asp code?

Any help or useful links would be a very good help!

Sql, Sql Express, Access Or Mysql For Data

Mar 30, 2008

If this has been discussed before i apologise as i am fairly new to the asp forum and was not sure where to search for threads.
I am upgrading to a new web plan that supports asp and i noticed that godaddy supports all of the above databases.  I was curious if there are any advantages to using one db over the others as far as web is concerned? 
What i am looking to do is handle guestbook,  logins for registered users which would control access to certain downloads and possibly pages as well.  And it was also advised that i look into using a database to store and display dynamic information in my master page to only show the updated information instead of a complete new page each time.  This would save on having to manage so many pages.
 So i would really appreciate any advice on the databases as i will be making my decision to go with a specific web host based on this.  I would also appreciate any advice on a good web host for asp and database support.
Thank you Jeff

Copy Data From Access To SQL Express In Code?

Jun 1, 2006

I have tried the upsize wizard from access 2000 and access 2003 and get records transfer in 90% of the tables I have data stored an 89 meg MS access database (2003) on an XP machine.  I can use, compact and copy etc in MS Access without problem. 

With the upsize, I get No errors, just does not reliably move ALL data.  I have run it multiple times and occasionally get some data in these tables, but never all data in a few tables and inconsistent.

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

So I have written code to copy the data from the access database and move it field by field into an Upsized database that was structure only, no data.

I have ONLY one Identity field (autonumber in MS access) that is the Key Relationship number to all other tables. 

1 questions and one "bug" report need solutions to both.

Question:  How can I copy the value from the MS access autonumber field to the identity field.  (Some of the autonumber rows have been deleted so not always sequentiall)  (I can do this moving data in code between to MS access databases that have autonumber fields)

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

I tied an elaborate write around to addNEW and then read the data in  the newly created row.  Reading the Identity field, I look up that number in the MS access database.  Then I copy the ACCESS data to the Newly created table row in SQL Exress and update. 

It works fine for about 30 record updates, then the Identify field stops giving me the correct sequence for the Identity field value.  Makes it impossible to make sure all of my Access rows get copied.    Tried transactions but not supported with the ADODB configuration, but doubt that would help.

Example data returned in the SQL Express recordset, when I read the Identify field back I get

1,2,3 etc  31, 33, 32 (out of sequence) then it (my code) can't figure out the out of sequence and end up with the next identity value at 41.

The only info I found was that it could be a cursorlocation problem, what do you recommend?

?Is there a way in code to change the identity field to string, then copy the data and change back to identity field again?

Importing Data From Access 2002 In SQL Express

Jan 18, 2007

Hi 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

Martin

Data Access :: MS Access ADODB Connection To Stored Procedure - Cannot Retrieve Data

Sep 22, 2015

I'm trying to re-write my database to de-couple the interface (MS Access) from the SQL Backend.  As a result, I'm going to write a number of Stored Procedures to replace the MS Access code.  My first attempt worked on a small sample, however, trying to move this on to a real table hasn't worked (I've amended the SP and code to try and get it to work on 2 fields, rather than the full 20 plus).It works in SQL Management console (supply a Client ID, it returns all the client details), but does not return anything (recordset closed) when trying to access via VBA code.The Stored procedure is:-

USE [VMSProd]
GO
/****** Object: StoredProcedure [Clients].[vms_Get_Specified_Client] Script Date: 22/09/2015 16:29:59 ******/
SET ANSI_NULLS ON
GO
SET QUOTED_IDENTIFIER ON

Help - Convert/import Access Data Into Sql 2005 Express... W/dts Wizard....?

May 11, 2008

 i have a website project making an online catalog, maybe 20 categories, a few hundred items.  the small business starter kit looked perfect to jump start this.  the client has provided an access database with the two table for categories and products.  i've got the dts wizard installed and have been trying to import the access data into the sbsk database but i'm stuck.  i'm almost positive that ONE time when i was banging around with the dts wizard, the Edit Mapping screen would let me drop down a list of fields in the destination table so I could actually tell it which field data from the source i wanted to go into which field of the destination.  Of course it didn't succeed that time and now i can't seem to figure a way to get back to having the option to choose the destination fields, all it gives me in the drop down is "<ignore>" or the field name of the source table, which of course doesn't match any of the ones that are in the sbsk.
i've been back through it for a couple days, trying different ways, migrating the data first to sql, letting it try a transfer to a new table then trying to import that, moving both out to excel, aligning the data manually and trying to import that, etc.  i'm bout out of ideas and would sure like to get back to just trying to work out the data type alignment issues with whatever it was i did when i could choose the destination table's fields.
i'd be most appreciative if anyone has a clue what i'm talking about and can put me back on track.

SQL Server Express, ODBC, Microsoft Access Sees Data Read-Only

Hi there,

I have successfully installed SQL Server Express.

I have copied NorthWind to SQL Server.

I have created an ODBC to the SQL NorthWind.

But my problem is, I open the data but I cannot edit or insert records

I have gone into SQL Management Studio and modified Permissions

on NorthWind and the Customer table with Alter, Insert, Update.

But no luck.

Has anyone experienced this?

Email me at justintoronto@hotmail.com if you have a solution.

I will try to check back here also.

Data Access :: Management Studio To Access Data On Laptop?

Jun 30, 2015

I have a client who has SSMS installed on her laptop.  She is able to connect to the SQL server via SSMS in the office and query data on the server.

She needs to be out of site often and doesn't have internet access.  She asks if the data tables can be "backed up" or saved on her laptop, so she can look at them without worrying connecting to the server.  I am not sure if this can be achieved, as SSMS is built for accessing a server, not a desktop.  Myself never have this need.  If I really need it, I would go to Microsoft Access and create an ODBC connection to the datatables. But this client thinks that Microsoft Access is beneath her.

Like I stated all of my schemas are only 1 or two tables none are linked in any way they are independant table and the most records any one of the tables contain is around 250. Any suggestions?

Migrating Large Amounts Of Data From SQL Server 7.0 To 2000

Jul 20, 2005

I'm in the process of migrating a lot of data (millions of rows, 4GB+of data) from an older SQL Server 7.0 database to a new SQL Server2000 machine.Time is not of the essence; my main concern during the migration isthat when I copy in the new data, the new database isn't paralyzed bythe amount of bulk copying being one. For this reason, I'm splittingthe data into one-month chunks (the data's all timestamped and goesback about 3 years), exporting as CSV, compressing the files, and thenimporting them on the target server. The reason I'm using CSV isbecause we may want to also copy this data to other non-SQL Serversystems later, and CSV is pretty universal. I'm also copying in thisformat because the target server is remotely hosted and is notaccessible by any method except FTP and Remote Desktop -- nodatabase-to-database copying allowed for security reasons.My questions:1) Given all of this, what would be the least intrusive way to copyover all this data? The target server has to remain running and berelatively uninterrupted. One of the issues that goes hand-in-handwith this is indexes: should I copy over all the data first and thencreate indexes, or allow SQL Server to rebuild indexes as I go?2) Another option is to make a SQL Server backup of the database fromthe old server, upload it, mount it, and then copy over the data. I'mworried that this would slow operations down to a crawl, though, whichis why I'm taking the piecemeal approach.Comments, suggestions, raw fish?

DB Engine :: How To Avoid Special Characters While Migrating Data

Jun 23, 2015

I have a source sql 2005 with the database collation SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS and destination with sql 2012 with the same collation.

But the SQL server llvel collation is different, sql 2005 uses Latin1_General_CI_AI and sql 2012 uses "SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS"

Now when i load the data from 2005  for one table to sql 2012 i could see special characters in one column. And i dont see that in the source database. Is there a way to avoid that or is it something we need to manually fix.

Migrating Database Table Data From 2005 To 2000

Apr 20, 2007

I'm trying to get a database from SQL2005 to SQL2000. I already recreated the database in SQL2005 and I'm just trying to get some data from just a few tables.



It doesn't appear the DTS or any export functionality is available in my version of SQL Express 2005...so how do I do this. I've tried installing everything I can find.



I've also tried BCP but I keep getting these errors:



SQLState = 08001, NativeError = 53
Error = [Microsoft][SQL Native Client]Named Pipes Provider: Could not open a connection to SQL Server [53].
SQLState = HYT00, NativeError = 0
Error = [Microsoft][SQL Native Client]Login timeout expired
SQLState = 08001, NativeError = 53
Error = [Microsoft][SQL Native Client]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.



This is a LOCAL database and I have tried -T for trusted, I have also tried a username and password combination. The database is set to Allow Remote connections. Nothing is working.

Power Pivot :: External Access To Data Sets In The Data Catalog?

I'm currently working on a BI architecture for a customer, and consider to propose the Power BI data catalog as a data distribution layer. The customer will use Power BI, but also has other BI tools.

Are data sets in the data catalog available to other clients than Power Query alone? E.g. are there OData feed endpoints available? If not, what would be the best way to give other tools access to the data?
