Re: upsizing to sql 2005



If I upsize using the link option in Access 2003, when I input new data into
the database where is this done from Access or SQL?

Thank you

I don't know how they do it from the web, so I cannot pronounce myself on
any web-part or involving the web, sorry, but from an Access application,
yes. Access can store data in an mdb or in other (updateable) data source,
which include MS SQL Server linked table.

When I speak of web content, these are the people who put the information
in
the access database. Our web site is currently hosted on yahoo. The
access
database is hugh and we are also upsizing for security reason.

So what I mean was the the people who input the information into the
database can still do this from access and it will populate to sql is that
correct?

Thank you
Dee

Thank Michel.

I had tried that and it seems to work with no errors. In this manner
the
web content people will not have to learn anything different is that
so?

Again Thank you
Dee

Basically, yes, the front end can still be in Access with a back end
not
another mdb file, but MS SQL Server. I am not sure about Access-Web
thing,
though, but as far as 'plain' Access is involved, yes. That is another
(simpler) possibility than to move to an adp file...

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

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)
.
