Migration From MS Access 2003
Feb 1, 2006
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.

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.

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.

I would like to migrate an access data to SQL Server. However, the Access database has an OLE data type field that stores word documents. Is there a way to handle this in SQL Server?

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.

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!

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

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 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,

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?

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.
Thanks Marcus

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.
