Migrating MS Access Data To SQL Express Data
Feb 17, 2007Hi 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.

The table fields of the accounting system are different from my sql table and the Acc sys accepts only .DBF files.

Or is there any better appraochregards

All of my MySQL Schemas only have 1 or 2 tables in them so I would imagine that it isn't that hard to do. I treid just exporting it to a CSV file with the intention of just using import/export in MSSQL but in the express edition, it ain't there.

View 1 Replies View RelatedMigrating Large Amounts Of Data From SQL Server 7.0 To 2000
Jul 20, 2005I'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?

Jun 23, 2015I 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, 2007I'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:

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]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.

SSIS - Migrating Mainframe Data To SQL 2005 Only Mainframe Group Level Exposed
Apr 25, 2007In using SSIS to migrate data from mainframe to SQL 2005, I had a situation where only group level data was exposed through the ODBC to SSIS, so I pulled this information as varchar on the SQL destination side. Now I would like to break that group into the individual numeric columns I need on SQL Server. However, the positive and negative sign did not convert because it came of character. I can write something to convert the positive signs to positive numbers; however I cannot do the negative because I would need get rid of the leading zeros in order to place the negative sign before the number. Is there anything I could have done to get SSIS to do the conversion like it did for every one-to-one mapping?

I cannot get the SQL Server Upgrade Wizard to work!!
I have one machine with NT 4 (SP4) and SQL 6.5 and another machine with NT 4 (SP4) and SQL 7.0 (new install, never had SQL 6.5 one it). I want to upgrade a database to 7.0.
Each machine can 'see' the other via shares and even trying to register a SQL database in each other machines Enterprize manager (although that fails because they are different versions of SQL)
Using the Upgrade Wizard, on the third screen, where you specify the Server Name for the export server, it even has the other server's name in the dropdown list {I never even put it in}. And yet, after I set the export server name and put in the database SA account password and then put in the SA account password for the local server (the one that is running the Upgrade Wizard).
After I select next, I get a message that states...
'Unable to connect to Export Server. Please verify that you are an NT administrator on that machine.'
These are standalone servers. Not BDC's. I am logged into each machine as the administrator.
I have tried adjusting the SQL services to allow logging as the System Account and the administrator account and a whole bunch of options....
but I can't get it to work.

When I install SQL 7.0 and move my data to it, can I refresh my links in Access 97 from ODBC to OLE DB and automatically take advantage of the new connection, or do I have to rewrite my queries to take use OLE DB rather than DAO?

Aug 27, 2004Hello People,
I currently have a MS Access database that will eventually be migrated to MS SQL Server. There won't be an application now, just the database and the reports. My doubts are on how easy this transition will be.
1 - After I build all the database with tables and relationships, is there a tool that helps me to import data?
2 - Is there a way to insert the data on the database other than writing the SQL codes, I mean maybe creating some 'forms'?
3 - Once the data is in, it there a way for me to create report on the SQL Server itself or do I need a report generator like Cristal Reports for example;
4 - If yes, then how easy it is to integrate them;
5 - Is it complicated to generate these reports or it is pretty much the same interface as in Access or Delphi?
Thanks a lot

Migrating Db
Mar 28, 2007I have an ms sql 2000 db which I am migrating from one shared environment to another. How specifcally can I do this?
I have a copy of enterprise but not a full version of SQL on my local desktop.
The hosting company from which I am moving has placed the db as a zip file on the root of my site via ftp. I have unzipped it and it appears as a backup copy (.bak).
I appreciate any detail steps, I assume via enterprise, that anyone can give me. Thank you.
Migrating SQL From NT4.0 To AD

We are planning to migrate (not upgrade!) everything to a new WIndows 2003 AD environment using ADMT. I wanted to know if there are any issues with the migration of an SQL server if we are to move forward with this strategy. I have heard that an SQL database keeps domain related information within its database and wanted to know if this is true.

Migrating Sql Server
Mar 8, 2008I've developed a website and it's hosted by a hosting company. Lately i've registered a new domain with a new virtual hosting account. I've transfered my web files succesfully. But migrating the sql server failed for a couple of times now. My database containes many tables with many products. My hosting provides doesn't give me the opportuniy to restore my backup which i've backuped from my old server. First I tried to use the import and export tool of sql server 2005. This was very easy and it succeeded. But this tool only migrates the tables and the views. All the common stored procedures of asp.net membership are not exported. So I can't login at the moment. I've tried to generate a sql script with all the stored procedures with sql server management studio. But If i want to run this script on my new db, it fails with various errors. I tried to use the aspnet_regsql tool to create all the membership tables and stored procedures. If this succeeds, I can import and export my old db to the new one. But i'm getting a error while trying to use the aspnet_regsql tool. The error number is 290 and the error is: How can I fix this?

Migrating The Master DB
Dec 15, 2005This is long post but I really want some feedback on this urgently so please hang in there!
I am migrating a SQL Server over to a new server.
I have done the following and although everything appears to be working like a charm I would like to know if there are any gotchas that I have not considered.
These are the steps I used to 'move' the master db.
/*
I restored all the users databases onto the new sesrver from backups of the old (file copies and attaches would also do).
I restored a db named masterbak from a backup of the master on the old server. And again into a second db called masterbak2. I then detach masterbak2. I need to use those files later on.
So at this point I now have all the user databases that the old server had but I dont have logins, extended stored proc defs, and any user objects that were created in the old master.
Now I want to put all those missing things into the new master db. These are the steps that I used to achieve this.
*/
-- where doing open heart on sys tables so need this turned on
EXEC sp_configure 'allow updates' , 1
reconfigure WITH OVERRIDE
-- remove all database defs from the copy of the old master
delete masterbak..sysdatabases
-- and load it with all the database defs from the new master

/*
now stop the SQL server instance;
rename the physical files master.mdf and mastlog.ldf to masterORIG.mdf and mastlogOrig.ldf
rename masterbak.mdf and mastlogbak.ldf to master.mdf and mastlog.ldf.
rename masterbak2.mdf and mastlogbak2.ldf to masterbak.mdf and mastlogbak.ldf.
I wanted to preserve the new master files so didnt rename to masterbak but I suppose you could.
Start up SQL server and everything should be fine.
Configuration settings are as expected, databases started up ok and file locations are ok, logins both SQL and NT are ok, all master user objects are present.
User and login SIDs match.
A linked server access that was setup failed but after redoing security on the linked server it was ok? Sysoledbusers holds the security for this but not sure about this one.
Important:
You need to check sql log for any errors.
It should be clean.
If you have auto start procs that reference reg keys that are not on the new server you with be told which key is missing and you can export key from old server and import into new server.
Dlls of course will need to come accross but again error messages will indicate the dll that is missing and its path.
So we now have a server that starts up clean but its of a different name of the original of course and since we have a myarid of external servers etc that depend on the server name we are going to keep the old name as well.
So now we change the server name, requires reboot, start up QA and logging into to each 'new' instance name, run the following
-- 'SQLSERV02 -> SQLSERV01'
sp_helpserver
sp_dropserver 'SQLSERV02'
sp_addserver 'SQLSERV01', local
and that should be that.
you might get this :
-- Server: Msg 15190, Level 16, State 1, Procedure sp_dropserver, Line 44
-- There are still remote logins for the server 'SQLSERV02'.
sp_configure 'allow updates',1
RECONFIGURE WITH OVERRIDE
-- have a look at it
select srvid from master.dbo.sysservers where srvname = 'SQLSERV02'
select * from master.dbo.sysxlogins
where srvid = 0 and
not(ishqoutmap = 1 and
xstatus&192 = 192 and
sid is null and
name is null and
password is null)
-- get rid of it
delete master.dbo.sysxlogins
where srvid = 0 and
not(ishqoutmap = 1 and
xstatus&192 = 192 and
sid is null and
name is null and
password is null)
sp_configure 'allow updates',0
RECONFIGURE WITH OVERRIDE
My last step is to get all those jobs and log shipping over to the new server. And I have not yet done this so am not sure if any further open heart is required.
But the theory is that I just need to restore an msdb taken from the old server.
Naturally you will need to put in place the same file path structure on the new server for those scripts / jobs that create files on disk - such as backup files.
I will find out about msdb soon enough as this is going down tonight.
Can anyone see any obvious gotchas in this method?
cheers and thanks for your feedback
