Re: upsizing to sql 2005

Are you stating to upsize the database using the link option? Will this
still have the access front end, because we do not want to train the web
content developers sql. We would like for them to view and populate the
tables and queries the same way they do now.

Thank you
Dee

Update only the data portion. In your Access application, as an-mdb, not as
an adp, then link to the tables in the MS SQL Server (using the same name
you were using in your Jet queries and elsewhere in your application) and
your application should continue to work (with its Jet-queries, on linked
table).


You then have time to migrate manually your queries, if required, since your
application and the data, in the database, are working fine.

Michel,

I am not sure how to fix the rest. We are currently using the access
database on the yahoo webserver and it gets worked on all day and updated
several times a day on the server.

If you or some one could explain to me how to fix this I will have the web
content people start making their changes, while I make the sql changes.
I
just do not know what to fix and how to fix it.

Thanks
Dee

What I do not understand then, is why did these work and it stoped
there:

Here is an example that is in the earlier part of the upsizing:


Query Name: Arcadia - ARC
Upsized using SQL:
CREATE FUNCTION "Arcadia - ARC" ()
RETURNS TABLE
AS RETURN (SELECT TOP 100 PERCENT StoreData.*
FROM StoreData
WHERE (((StoreData.id) Like '%-ARC'))
ORDER BY StoreData.id)
Query Name: Arcadia - FLW
Upsized using SQL:
CREATE FUNCTION "Arcadia - FLW" ()
RETURNS TABLE
AS RETURN (SELECT TOP 100 PERCENT FabricsData.*
FROM FabricsData
WHERE (((FabricsData.id) Like '%-ARC'))
ORDER BY FabricsData.id)
Query Name: Arcadia - Sections
Upsized using SQL:
CREATE FUNCTION "Arcadia - Sections" ()
RETURNS TABLE
AS RETURN (SELECT TOP 100 PERCENT SectionData.*
FROM SectionData
WHERE (((SectionData.id) Like '%-ARC'))
ORDER BY SectionData.id)

What is the difference here?

Thanks
Dee

The Cross queries (crosstab queries, you mean) are not upsizeable to
MS
SQL
Server. While SQL from MS SQL Server 2005 has some PIVOTing
capabilities,
it
cannot match the capabilities of Jet, such as not having an IN clause
in
the
PIVOT statement. You will have to re-write all those.


For queries like:

Query Name: Children's Factory - CHF
This query is not upsizeable


Since, it seems, we don't have the JET-SQL statement, it is hard to
tell
why
it cannot be upsized to MS SQL Server - SQL. *IF* the query is NOT a
crosstab, the most common kind of problem is that the query uses a VBA
function. It may also use SQL specific to JET. Edit each of these
queries
within JET, then, assuming you have some high-end managing tool at
your
disposition for MS SQL Server (other than Access), try to re-write the
query
in MS SQL Server. The tool I personally use is the MS SQL Server
Analyzer,
which is a kind of "debug immediate window", but for SQL statements.
If
you
are still unable to upsize one of these queries, you can always ask
here,
query by query, if someone got an idea.

Michel,

I ran this again and it looks like everything updated, but when I
look
at
the adp file it stoped at the same point every time.

Here is an idea of what I am getting:

Upsizing Wizard Report
1Database
Microsoft Access Database: C:\database\BizChair-2.mdb
SQL Server Database: BizChair-2SQL
Upsizing Parameters
Table Attributes to Export
Indexes Table relationships:
Validation rules Upsized using DRI
Defaults
Structure only, no Timestamp fields added:
No tables
Modifications to Existing Database
Attach newly created Save password and
SQL Server tables user ID with attached
tables
Client/Server Modifications
Create a new Access Save password and
client/server user ID with
application. application


then this happens:


Query Name: Chicago Textile - CT
Upsized using SQL:
CREATE FUNCTION "Chicago Textile - CT" ()
RETURNS TABLE
AS RETURN (SELECT TOP 100 PERCENT StoreData.*
FROM StoreData
WHERE (((StoreData.id) Like '%-CT'))
ORDER BY StoreData.id)
Query Name: Chicago Textile - FLW
Upsized using SQL:
CREATE FUNCTION "Chicago Textile - FLW" ()
RETURNS TABLE
AS RETURN (SELECT TOP 100 PERCENT FabricsData.*
FROM FabricsData
WHERE (((FabricsData.id) Like '%-CT'))
ORDER BY FabricsData.id)
Query Name: Chicago Textile - Sections
Upsized using SQL:
CREATE FUNCTION "Chicago Textile - Sections" ()
RETURNS TABLE
AS RETURN (SELECT TOP 100 PERCENT SectionData.*
FROM SectionData
WHERE (((SectionData.id) Like '%-CT'))
ORDER BY SectionData.id)
Query Name: ChildBrite - FLW
Upsized using SQL:
CREATE FUNCTION "ChildBrite - FLW" ()
RETURNS TABLE
AS RETURN (SELECT TOP 100 PERCENT FabricsData.*
FROM FabricsData
WHERE (((FabricsData.id) Like '%-CB'))
ORDER BY FabricsData.id)
Query Name: ChildBrite - CB
Upsized using SQL:
CREATE FUNCTION "ChildBrite - CB" ()
RETURNS TABLE
AS RETURN (SELECT TOP 100 PERCENT StoreData.*
FROM StoreData
WHERE (((StoreData.id) Like '%-CB'))
ORDER BY StoreData.id)
- 40 - 18-Oct-07

Query Name: Children's Factory - CHF
This query is not upsizeable
CREATE FUNCTION "ChildBrite - CB" ()
RETURNS TABLE
AS RETURN (SELECT TOP 100 PERCENT StoreData.*
FROM StoreData
WHERE (((StoreData.id) Like '%-CB'))
ORDER BY StoreData.id)
Query Name: Choice Furnishings - FLW
This query is not upsizeable
CREATE FUNCTION "ChildBrite - CB" ()
RETURNS TABLE
AS RETURN (SELECT TOP 100 PERCENT StoreData.*
FROM StoreData
WHERE (((StoreData.id) Like '%-CB'))
ORDER BY StoreData.id)
Query Name: Choice Furnishings Inc - CFI
This query is not upsizeable
CREATE FUNCTION "ChildBrite - CB" ()
RETURNS TABLE
AS RETURN (SELECT TOP 100 PERCENT StoreData.*
FROM StoreData
WHERE (((StoreData.id) Like '%-CB'))
ORDER BY StoreData.id)

It continues and never populates the adp after that, but it seems
data
went
into the sql server because the records for all tables are the same
for
access and sql.

I am using alot of queries and cross queries. Do not know what to
fix
this
problem.

Thanks
Dee

If the upsizer cannot convert a Jet-query to an MS SQL-query, you
have
to
do
it by hand, in the end of the process. As example, if your query
uses
a
VBA
function, like Nz, then you have to change it for COALESCE; etc.
It
is a
case-by-case job. If you have a, one, but specific problem at that
step,
you
can use the newsgroup to ask what can be done ! for a very
*specific*
problem, that is.

So, do the most that can be done, automatically, and in the end,
add
the
required 'manual' touch.

How can I fix thist kind of problems? I am running into problem
where
it
stops at the same query every time and I do not know what the
problem
is.
Is
there any documentation I can view that would tell me what to
look
for?
Is
there anything I need to be running that would check the database
before
upsizing it?

Thanks
Dee

As far as the data is concerned, there should be no problem as
long
as
the
table design is similar.

So, if your actual data is coherent under Jet, it will also be
coherent
.
