Migration Assistant For Access Can't Find SQL Database?
Aug 6, 2007
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.

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.

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,

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 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 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 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..

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.

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

Ok, lets see if I can put what I am looking for into words.
I run a MSSQL server, I show in my logs that a connection is being made to my server from a remote ip. I have contact the owner of the ip in question and they state that they have no buisness with us and they should not be connected to us. According to netstat the connection to us is established on 2 different remote ports to 1433. My question, is there any logging on sql that I can turn on, look at to see what database this connection is accessing? Thanks

At work we are migrating several Access databases to SQL Server 2005 standard edition. These Access databases have no user interface forms. They do however have a series of macros that execute make table queries.
I'm trying to determine what are options are for replacing the make table queries in the macros. My first thought was to do the work in a SQL Server stored prodecure. I am asking for advice on what our options are. Is a stored procedure the way to go? Any suggestions on how to do it?
Thanks.

Hello all,
Does anyone know of a utility to migrate Access 97 Queries to SQL Server 7?
I've over 400 of them and I am trying not to have to do them by hand.
Also I tried to use to migration wizard from MS instead of the DTS and all I got was Error after error. 'Invalid Date/Time', 'Error with YES/NO field' and 'Timed out' were the most common. In the end only 4 tables out of 89 were migrated.
Any suggestions would be greatly Appreciated.

Hi-
Can you give me any help/assistance on the development process involved with migration from MS Access to SQL Server 7.
Specifically, I need my current MS Access data migrated to SQL, and then I need two (2) fairly simple forms developed for data input and searching on the web.
The developers I have been speaking too seem to want to buy their Hawaiian condo from this one project...which seems like A LOT OF $$ for the development of an off-the-shelf product that costs $15,000.
Any leads and/or thoughts would be GREATLY APPRECIATED.
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

Hello,
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 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.

Hi guys.
I'm using the SSMA to migrate Access databases into SQL Sever. It's a pretty nifty tool, however, I am having some trouble fully migrating the data over.
When I select 'Convert Schema' the schemas for all the tables are created on the server and *all* the table names appear in the Server Metadata Explorer. There are the usual warnings about name changes and primary key additions and the like but importantly, the output window says that there were no errors. Scrolling through all the tables on the server explorer with the 'Table' tab selected confirms that the schemas for all the tables have been migrated, but for one or two of the newly created tables, the 'Data' tab shows the error message "Failed to retrieve data: Invalid object name 'NewDB.dbo.Pref'" for example. Consequently, when I move on to migrating the data, the operation fails for the tables showing these errors and the error message 'The table 'NewDB.dbo.[Pref]' does not exist in SQL Server' is shown when it is displaying in the Metadata Explorer. When I view the server schema in Management Studio Express, it confirms that they have not been migrated. I have tried to look at the failing tables' schemas and identify any similarities which might be causing them to fail migration but they are all very different so I don't think it's a schema issue.
Any ideas? TIA

Venkatesh writes "In MS-Access table a coulmn is specified as Auto number property.
I want to migrate this table into SQL Server.
We can create a new column that has identity property in SQL Server 2000, which simulate autonumber property of MS-Access.
My access table contains 700 records and I need to set the column (ListID) as Auto number. i.e., I m going to modify this

But I cant set the identity property for the existing column.
Can u pls send me the sql query that modify the existing column(ListId) with Identity property.

I've downloaded the migration tool to convert an Access 2000 DB to a SQL DB. The VB code utilizes DAO (3.6) for hourly automatic compaction and the creation of an encrypted security database. ADO is used for the data maintenance functions. I expect the current connection methodology of ODBC using Jet 4.0 will need to be modified (many articles here address this). All the SQL code is inline and also must be modified. The Coldfusion code utilizes Micrsoft Access with Unicode via an ODBC connection with only SQL Select statements. At another job, I migrated an Informix 7 database to MS SQL 7 and for the most part the SQL code remained the same except for the wildcard spec from * to %.
I'm looking for insights and/or shortcuts on this effort, primarily in the SQL command mods area. I'm perusing the threads here as we speak, but hoped someone knew of a specific thread I could go to....laziness is alive and well for us chronologically gifted people, i.e. over 55.
Any help or links are greatly appreciated!

Hello,
I am trying to migrate reporting services from SQL server 2000 to SQL 2005. I followed the migration steps listed in one of the TechNet documents. Installed SQL 2005 and SP2.
Backed up existing SQL 2000 databases and restored on SQL 2005.
Went to Configuration tool and then to the Database setup. Connected to SQL 2005.
Clicked on the Upgrade button. The upgrade fails and I always get the following errors:
"The database version (C.0.6.54) does not match your reporting services installation. You must upgrade your Reporting services database"
Then I get this exception:
System.Data.SqlClient.SqlException: Cannot find the user 'RSExecRole', because it does not exist or you do not have permission.
at System.Data.SqlClient.SqlConnection.OnError(SqlException exception, Boolean breakConnection)
at System.Data.SqlClient.SqlInternalConnection.OnError(SqlException exception, Boolean breakConnection)

at ReportServicesConfigUI.SqlClientTools.SqlTools.ApplyScript(String connectionString, String script)
I do not understand why it is looking for user 'RSExecRole', which is a role.
Appreciate your help

We have an old client server application (vb / sql 2000) we have now converted that application to a web based asp.net / sql 2000. Though the db is same (sql 2000) for both applications, tables/columns has been changed during the development process. Now i need to migrate the data from our old db to this new db. Should this be done the "painful" way of checking each and every table its links/dependencies, columns manually or is there a tool which helps me migrate the data from one db to another (even though the tables/columns are different)Please Help.Thanks.
