Hi
I have an Access 2000 database which I am trying to export to SQL 2000. I am using import utility from the SQL Enterprise manager. It imports all b ut 2 tables, which has a field of type DataTime with longtime format (like 5:30:28 PM). It gives the following error on this column.
Inset Error Column 13 ('connectTime',DBTYPE_DBTIMESTAMP) status 6: Data Ovewrflow. Invalid character value for cast specification.
How can I transfer this field to SQL with out loosing its format.
Thank you all.
I have managed to transfer the SQL SERVER 2000 database tables to access database by using DTS. But how can I transfer stored procedures in SQL SERVER to Access 2000
I am having Access database in my local system . Values in the access database will be updated for every 5 min . I am also having Sqlserver database online with the same structure database of Access in my local system . What i want is my Access database values must be updated in my online sqlserver at every 5 min automatically .How to do that ?
when would you want to use the 'image' field type and how would the data be stored? is it just like entering in the name of an image in another folder?
Hi,Simple question: A customer has an application using Access 2000frontend and SQL Server 2000 backend. Data connection is over ODBC.There are almost 250 concurrent users and is growing. Have theysqueezed everything out of Access? Should the move to a VB.Net frontendtaken place ages ago?CheersMike
I recently had to reinstall a new instance of SQLServer 2000, but was unable to use the previous server name. As a result, my Access2000 front end is not happy with it's linked tables. I can't seem to find anyplace within Access to universally change the address of the SQLServer used as the back-end for all linked tables.
When I do try to access the linked tables through Access, I get an error, and the option to change the server location. When I try to type-in the new SQLServer location, there is an attempt to reconnect to SQLServer, but a whole lot of errors are generated, and none of the data is transferred into the Access table.
I really don't want to have to re-do my Access front end, so it seems it would be easiest to somehow reinstall SQLServer to have the same server location it used to. Is there a good way to completely erase all traces of SQLServer so that I can have better luck reinstalling it to the same location it used to be in? Just using the uninstall program from SQLServer doesn't seem to be cutting it.
I've created a small company database where the tables reside in a SQLServer database. I'm using Access 2000 forms for a front end.I've got a System DSN set-up to SQL Server and am using links withinAccess 2000 to get to the SQL Server tables.My forms worked fine until I made a few minor changes to the databaseschema on SQL Server (e.g. added a foreign key, or added a column).After that, all the links break - I click on a table link and get anerror msg like "invalid object name."Deleting the links after a schema change and re-adding the links seemedto fix the problem. The forms I'd already created seemed to work fineafter re-creating the links.But then I got more advanced with my forms. I have it set up so thatfor certain entry fields, the combobox gets populated with values froma table (the description appears in the drop-down and the correspondingprimary key value gets populated in the table). I created a number offorms using this technique, entered data, and everything worked fine.Made a small schema change and it broke everything -- not the actualtable links, but the functionality for the drop-downs. My values nolonger appeared, and this was true for forms that accessed tables whoseschemas did not change.This is driving me nuts. Is there any way to keep my forms frombreaking each time I make a small schema change?Thanks.- Dana
We are using an Access 2000 project to view our SQL Tables and using Access 2000 Runtime to Access the forms in the project. We have written in a locking system in VB and removed the video controls to prevent users from accessing the same records. But of course now we need to make the video controls available. This has now thrown up the problem of multiple users accessing the same records. We have tried to write code to lock records when then video controls are used but this is not working as well as we hoped. Can anyone please suggest any way of setting up locking on SQL using triggers from the Access frontend? or any other types of locking systems that could be written in the Access front end.
Hi, I worked on a project in ASP.NET using SQL server 2000 as the back end. Its a conversion application that I rewrote in ASP.NET using C#. I need to import the old data in Access db into SQL server 2000 and I have very little knowledge about doing it. The data in not a direct one -one transformation. There are considerable changes to the Database design and data types. Any help and suggestions wud be really helpful. Also, any article links wud be great.
We have a SQL Server 7.0 system in NT 4.0 environment. We upgraded our users to Access 2000 and started to work with this. Now we installed a new server which is Windows 2000 based and the domain is different from the SQL servers domain. We then installed Access 2000 on Windows 2000 to use with terminal server. But I noticed that there was a problem with the program. I then looked at the program which was written on Access 2000 and saw that the tables and views can't be seen. The program runs but I can't see the views and tables. Another thing is access disconects from SQL Server when I want to see the tables. So what can be the problem.
In one part there is an Access 2000 on Windows 2000 server. On the other part SQL Server 7.0 on Windows NT 4.0. And Access can't see the tables in SQL server.
When I try to make a connection to an Access .mdb I get the following error: "Unable to open application. The workgroup information file is missing or opened exclusively by another user"
Yet, I am able to open the file through Access and have necessary permissions and I know no one else has it opened. The mdb is password protected and I have provided the correct login information in the DTS connection.
How can I configure a front end Access 2000 Database using Microsoft SQL 2000 as a back end environment? Could anybody help me by telling me what are the steps under SQL? Thanks everyone in advance.
I am converting a MS Access 2000 project to use SQL Server. This project has uncovered a number of problems, my latest seems to be very odd.
When I query using ADO against the SQL Server database, the results don't seemed to be returned immediately. It's like the access methods being used are waiting too long to write/read the data.
This could be a simple ADO configuration error, but I cannot find any settings that would make this behave so strange.
I'm using OLE/DB drivers with trusted security and attaching using client-side recordsets (I tried server-side as well, same results) to get data for the Access form. In many instances, the data from the form is not yet retrieved when I check the results using the debugger. If I execute the same section of code just seconds later, it works without fail.
I ran the SQL Server Profiler just for grins and found that records were not getting written to the database as I would have expected. Apparently ADO had generated a transaction and rolled it back. (why I don't know) I have looked in Microsoft's support database and on MSDN to no avail. Rather then rewriting my T-SQL as stored procedures for these functions, I'm hoping for some insights from anyone else who has been down this nasty road.
Here is the exact scenario:
Problem #1: A form that accepts data and has an update button does not update the recordset being used to populate the form. I even coded a rst.Update statement into the code. The record within the recordset isn't updated until the DoCmd.GotoRecord , , acNewRec call has been made. I suppose I could code the insert statement myself, but shouldn't Access be updating the database for me. (it does have r/w access)
Problem #2: A subform that performs a query and allows records to be added to a table does not correctly detect data returned from the query. A check is made in the code for a field (which has a value of 0) but the code detects a null value. If I step through this code in the debugger, enough time passes that the value is present and I never see the problem. If I set a breakpoint at the error, the null condition is indicated, even though the debugger shows a value of 0 for the field.
SQL Server version is 2000, with SP3a applied.
I updated the MDAC to 2.8, JET to 8.0 and still the same problem. I cannot find anything in my ADO or Access books for a setting that would cause this behavior. My connection is using the following info:
Set Conn = New ADODB.Connection Conn.CursorLocation = adUseClient Set rst = New ADODB.Recordset Connection string: Provider=SQLOLEDB;Data Source=myserver;Initial Catalog=mydb;Trusted_Connection=Yes;Integrated Security=SSPI; Recordset Cursor type: adOpenDynamic Recordset LockType: adLockOptimistic
I open the recordset using: rst.Open mytable, Conn, adOpenDynamic, adLockOptimistic, adCmdTableDirect
Problem # 1
After manipulating the data in the form, I press a "save" button on the form. This button calls a number of subroutines, eventually executing the code below:
Problem # 2 I set the recordsource using: (in the form_open) Me.RecordSource = "Select * from mytable where myfield = 'data'"
In the form_unload, the problems occur. It tests for a value stored in the form from the query. This value is null at the time of the code execution, it has a value when inspected within the debugger however.
Maybe I'm missing something here, this project was originally coded using DAO. My conversion to ADO is 95% complete. (all of these two components are converted to ADO) This problem is causing me to miss out on sleep and look like a rookie.
Has anyone seen or heard of something such as this? Is there any hope for this snarled mess of 25K lines of code?
Hi,I have developed an application using VB 6 (SP 5), MS Access 2000 andCrystal Reports 9. I migrated from from access to SQl Server 2000.This wasn't a problem as i could import all the tables to SQL Server.Also, i could make VB6 talk to SQl Server.The problem arsies when i run my application. The sql syntax foraccess seems to be different than that for SQL Server. A simpleexample being: In access boolean datatype is true/false ,whereas inSQL Server the boolean equivalent is bit (numerical 1 or 0). Thesekind of issues are causing problems and most queries don't run.Would i need to go and change all the queries in accordance with SQlServer syntax ,which would be very time consuming or is there anyfunction which will convert the access datatype into its equivalentSQl Server datatype??Any input/thoughts/suggestions would be appreciated.ThanksJatin

I get too many error messages with access 2000. I can hardly wait until they rolll out office xp at work
here's my prediciment, I need to transfer my SQL DB to another SQL Server, but I don't have access to the server, I get the login through a third party company.
So what do I need to do to transfer the database to another server as an EXACT copy of my original database, IDENTITY Fields and all.
Hi all, How do I transfer a database from a SQLEXPRESS instance on my PC to another SQLEXPRESS instance on my laptop? I tried backing it up and restoring it on the laptop but it comes up with errors. This is the error Restore failed for Server 'DOUGYDOESQLEXPRESS' System.Data.SqlClient.SqlError: CREATE DATABASE permission denied in database 'master' (Microsoft.SqlServer.Express.Smo). Do I need to perform some configuration somewhere? Any leads will be most appreciated. Thanks
How will I be able to transfer table that have stored procedured specifc to them to another server? This is from sql server 7 to another sql server 7. Would this be possible without losing any data or procedure or which ever may be attached to the tables?
Is there a utility to transfer the logins for a database for one server to another without setting the login passwords to null as the SQL transfer utility does?
Really easy question I think. I've been working on a website using a back end SQL database. All the tables, views etc have been designed and built. There is some data in the tables. Now that I have developed it I want to move the whole database onto the live Server which resides on another machine. How can i transfer a database from my development server to the live one?
I have two SQL servers I am dealing with. I have some tables in one databaseon one SQL server that I want to transfer into a database on the other SQLserver. I want to xerox copy the tables including all primary keys,identities, defaults etc. I used the export/import feature in EnterpriseManger, but when I do it, and view the tables that got imported, all of mydefaults are gone and all the primary keys are gone. What is the best way tojust copy a few tables from one database to another. I do NOT want to copythe entire database from one SQL server to the other, only a few tables. Ijust want to make sure that when they are imported they are exactly the sameas where they came from. THANKS
Hi, I've a problem that I haven't experienced before and need some help. I've developed an app that works fine locally and have uploaded via FTP to my host provider - .NET 2 and SQL2005 Express. I'm now getting problems accessing the site. In the application load event I load a couple of application state items from the database. When it hits the default aspx page, it throws an Object reference not set to an instance of an object. error because the application state items haven't been loaded. The host then tried to load the database using SQL Management Express to ensure there wasn't a problem with the database and this is where I get confused..... When they try to attach it, the message column n the "Attach Databases" screen says the file cannot be found. In the "Current File Path" column, it points to the path of my local machine, i.e. H:SourceClubApp_Dataclub.mdf. This leads me to believe that somewhere in the database the original file path is noted and used. I can't find this and wondered if anyone has come accross this issue before?? The log file has been deleted. Any help and advice appreciated. Terry.
I need to create a stored procedure that copies records with DeptID = 'S' from Table1 into Table2.Is there anywhere i can check up information on how to go about doing this or the SQL syntax for this?

I've read about using starsql odbc and sql server 7.0 DTS utility to transfer the database or data from a DB2 to SQL Server. I have a SQL Server 6.5 and need to transfer data from a DB2. Is the operation the same? Is there a utility in sql server 6.5 that allows this?
i ave transfered all the users from one of my sql server to another sql server but what the problem is that all the users that are on new sql server having a NULL password.....
so that means that when u transfer users from one sql servers to another the passwords will be remain as null for all users......
I have a SQL Server 2000 database in a remote host and I want to move all my data to another remote (virtual) host, where on both machines I do not have direct access.
Can you advise me what is the best way to make this transition?
I have an application that runs off an sql server 2000 sp3 database. I have taken a backup (.bak file) of the production database and restored it to another server for testing purposes. the users cannot login to the new server because the logins have not been transfered to the new server. I am looking to transfer the logins using the procedure outlined at the following link: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/246133/ under the header "Create and Run Stored Procedures in the Master Database". what I need to know is will this procedure affect the production server in any way? (I can't have that) and is there anything else I need to do after this to let the users login to the test server with the same name and passwords?
I have created two SSIS packages one is development and another is test. I used near about 15 global variables in my test SSIS package.Both development and test package working on transfering data from database and put into text files now i want to implement all these variables into development package how i will do that wheather i have to create all these variables in development package also or there is way to transfer these variables from one package to another
When restoring DBs to other environments the SIDS don't transfer causing access problems, and when I use a SID scripting method and deploy on the target environment SQL says the login already exists.
I usually end up with the cumbersome process of explicitly removing the logins and re-applying - how to other DBA's get round this?
