Is it possible to upsize an Access 2003 database to SQL Server Express without actually installing Access 2003 on my server....I would prefer to not have to do that. Currently, I only have the Access mdb file on the server...it is the backend to my ASP application. Can I download and run the Upsizing Wizard on it's own?
Thanks in advance,

I am upsizing an Access 2003 database to SQL 2005 (SP2)
I frequently use the criteria forms![formname].[fieldname] in Access queries to open reports or forms in Access but cannot find an SQL equivalent. Can anyone please point me in the right direction?
Many thanks in advance

Hello,
I have an Access 2003 application that uses a query to supply sorted data to a combobox on a form. This bit works fine.
I've upsized to SSE and have now got a few learning opportunities! Can anybody suggest how I can get the same functionality in the upsized/SSE version? Do I need a stored procedure or a view (or something else) to deliver sorted data? As you can tell, what I know about SQL Server wouldn't cover a postage stamp! Any recommendations for good books on the subject?
TIA for any help.

Hi Folks,
I have an access 2007 data base for document control and it saves the received documents in a table in a attachment field type, I tried to upsize it to SQL Server 2005 but after upsizing realized that this field type is not supported by 2005 so I downloaded the SQL Express 2008 and installed it as it has this enhancement but Access 2007 doesn’t recognize the server for upsizing.
I appreciate you help
Thanks :beer:
Hi
I have an Access 2000 Database which I am upsizing to SQL Server 2005 Express Edition. The Database has 29 tables and 60 stored queries. Each time I upsize to SQL Server the tables come in fine but non of the queries are imported.
All of the queries are very simple Select, Insert, Update and Delete Queries with nothing special in them.
I have tried using the upsizing wizard in Access 2003 and also the SQL Server 2005 Migration Assistant for Access.
Is there anything special I need to do in the migration assistant to ensure that the queries are imported as well.
Cheers

Hello,
I have a question about an error I am getting when upsizing my Access Database back end to SQL Server 7.0. My server has the following configuration:
Microsoft Windows 2000 Server, Service Pack 3
SQL Server 7.0, Service Pack 4, OLAP Services Service Pack 3
Microsoft Office 2000, Service Pack 2
When I attempt to upsize my database, the first four tables are upsized successfully, but the fifth table has the following error in a window that pops up called "Errors from Server":
SQL that Caused Error(s):
UT_CopyData
Error(s):
Server Error 0: Timeout Expired
The table that is having the error is very large, with 240,972 records. I have tried to perform the upsizing after cutting the size of the table down to only 20,000 records, and the error does not occur.
I would like to know if there is a timeout parameter in SQL Server 7.0 that I can configure that would keep this timeout error from occuring while upsizing my database with the full table of 240,972 records. I have already tried setting "remote login timeout" = 0 and "resource timeout" = 100000, but neither of these has helped. Thank you very much for any advice you can provide me!
Take care!

Access 2003 Data exported to SQL Express , great.
How do I then link the tables to the new database, I only seem to be able to link to system tables etc ??
Any ideas ?
I have an Access DB with about 50 tables. When I run the upsize wizard all bur four tables import beautifully, data and all. Four of the tables fail with the message 'Table was skipped, or export failed'
When I try to IMPORT the data I get 100 or so messages like this one:
Warning 0x80047076: Data Flow Task: The output column "AssessPlanPHPID" (23) on output "OLE DB Source Output" (11) and component "Source - tblAssessPlan" (1) is not subsequently used in the Data Flow task. Removing this unused output column can increase Data Flow task performance.
(SQL Server Import and Export Wizard)
And the import fails. Note that the upsize creates the tables just fine, it just won't import the data.
Any ideas?
I apologize for the fonts jumping around.
Hello,
I have sucessfully installed SQL Express, configured it for remote acess, created a working ODBC connection and can link tables from Access to SqlExpress. I am now trying to upsize an access database to SqlExpress. When I click "Use existing database" I get an Overflow error, no explanation is the wizard expecting like named tables with elements?
Any help appreciated.

View 6 Replies View RelatedDoes anybody know if there is and update for access 2003 which could make it compatible with SQLServer Express. Actually XML Field are not supported, Diagram too, and surely much more.
Any help would be appreciate.
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?
I upgraded an Access 2003 database to SQL Server 2005 Express with the upsize wizard- worked great! Have a field that needs to be a hyperlink data type. There is no datatype in SQL that is hyperlink. Even if it were a text field, possibly inserting a hyperlink would work, but the insert hyplink in Access is unavailable, because the datasource is sql, maybe. I have a command button that ties to this function which won't work, obviously since it is not available. I need this field, it points to a file containing data that is being imported into the database. Huge piece of the database functionality. Making it easy for the user to find the file and using the vba to convert the data.
Saw the option of jump to url, but I don't think that will work? couldn't find the exact syntax either.
Any ideas would be greatly appreciated!

I have an Access 2003 project (sp2) and the data in SQL Server 2005 Express.
My problem is when I try to make querys, diagrams, etc in Access, a warning tell me that I have installed a version of Access that is older than the version of SQL and all the designs that I make not be saved, and recommend a service pack for Access 2003 to correct the problem.
Can anybody help me, where is this SP??
Hello,
after successfully connect Access to the Server I want to add a table. I got an error message:
With this version of MS Office Access you are not able to make any drafts because this version of SQL server you are connected to does not support this. Check the MS Office update website for the newest downloads.
You habe connected to a version of SQL server which is newer than SQL server 2000.
Versions:
SQL Server runs on a MS Server 2003 SP1
Access 2003 (11.6566.6568 SP2) on an MS XP Pro SP1
all on actual patch level. Any ideas what's wrong?

Hi There,
We need to upsize serveral MS Access DB's to SQL Server. Herefor we use the standard upsize wizard from MS.
However, this tool does not convert all query's and functions.
Expample.
An standard query with an inner join will nog be upsized because access uses an different SQL statement order.
Does anybody knows a good tool with wich we can easier upsize the DB's
greetz,

I am upsizing a number of Access 2003 databases to SQL Server 2005 with Access Project front ends. Access Tables all upsize OK, some Queries upsize to SQL Views, some to SQL Functions and some get skipped completely. I have fixed up data type issues with Yes/No and Date/Time fields.
I would like all my Access Queries to be SQL Views. Some queries may have calculated fields and I suspect this is one of the issues. The only log in the report states 'Query "QueryName" failed to upsize'. Where should I start looking.
Any ideas on this please.
Thanks,
George
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,

I am trying to upsize an Access DB to Sql Server. The upsizing wizard runs fine when I try it locally to Sql Server Express 2005.
When I try to upload it to our remote server, I keep getting a bunch of errors
"Server Error 15135: Object is invalid. Extended properties are not permitted
on 'dbo.<table>.<field>', or the object does not exist."
I googled the error but all I could find was a change in coding to correct it. Since this is a Microsoft Wizard, I can't change any coding.
Any ideas on what is causing it, how to correct it?
thanks

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

How can make link to a table stored in an sql express 2005 database in access 2003 ? the classic method doesen't work. i tried to use odbc databases as file type to link, then build a data source using SQL native clint driver, but in the combo for default database i don't have the database created before, only master,msdb, model, tempdb. If i try to use the attach database filename text box i receive an error "the datadase entered is not valid". Any suggestions ?
Thx
Hi
I have conntected an Access 2003 project to a database in SQL Express and when I try to create a new view or stired procedure I get the message
This version of Microsoft Access doesn't support design changes with the version of Microsoft SQL Server your project is connected to. See the Microsoft Office Update Web site for the latest information and downloads (on the Help menu, click Office on the Web). Your design changes will not be saved.
Is it a limitation or have I not got the appropriate permissions set up
And if it is a limitation does it matter

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.
I am trying to simplify a query given to me by one of my collegues written using the query designer of Access. Looking at the query there seem to be some syntax differences, so to see if this was the case I thought I would import the database to my SQL Server Developer edition.
I tried to start the wizard from within SQL Server Management Studio Express as shown in one of the articles on MSDN which did not work, but the manual method also suggested did work.
Trouble is that it gets most of the way through the import until it spews forth the following error messages:
- Prepare for Execute (Error)

There does not seem to be any method of specifying a number of sessions, so I don't see how to get round the problem.
Does anyone know how I can get the import to work?
I have four complex Access 97 Databases which I need to upsize to SQLServer 7. The first thing I did was convert them to Access2000 because I was told that the upsizing wizard wal great. When I ran the wizard the report said that the queries couldn't be upsized because they had criteria which referred to a textbox on a form and that SQLServer couldn't handle this. When I remove the criteria, the queries seem to upsize very nicely. Dows anyone have a way to get the criteria information from the form to the query without having to do a major rewrite of database?
View 2 Replies View RelatedUnfortunately I have not the faintest idea where to begin!
I have an existing project relying on an Access database
and using ASP to run queries etc.which has a requirement
to be upsized to run on SQL server.
This leads me to a couple of questions,
1)Do I have to rewrite the database / asp completely for
use with SQL?
2)Can I simply upsize the Access database to SQL and continue to
run my existing asp?
I feel completely out of my depth here and help or pointers as to
where to start would be much appreciated!
I'm quite new to MS SQL and I don't really have a clue in what I am doing. I set up an evaluation of SQL 2005 to help me create a DB locally for testing an development.
I would continue to use Access, but the db is quite large and has 18 tables with lots of relationships. It also has anywhere from 20 to 50 concurrent users at one time, so therfore I am getting a lot of "Too Many Client Tasks" errors.
I tried using the Upsizing Wizard from access, but everytime I try to create a new DB in SQL, I get an error saying "Overflow". Thats it, no more, no less. If it said more I could possibly troubleshoot, but I have no idea what this means. Has anyone encountered this issue before? Does someone know where I can go to get help? I'm lost, so any help will be much appreciated.
Hi,
We have a document tracking application at my company which is extremely slow to load up and causes delays when staff log into their machines. This is because its launched from the login script. The application has an Access DB as the backend and is getting quite full which is why I think the performance is so poor.
My question is, can I upsize the DB to SQL server and link the tables into Access to improve performance?
I wasn't sure if this would make that much of a difference.
Thanks in advanced!
I keep getting the warning I don't have administrative privilege but I'm the only user on the computer and have verified in vb that I am the administrator.
Can somebody help?
