Re: upsizing to sql 2005



Michel,

Thank you. You have been of great help. I will forward this information to
my manager so we can decide which way to go.

If I have any more questions I will post here under a new post.

Again thank you
Dee

Yes, from that moment, you add data through the link of the linked table,
so, in this case, into MS SQL Server.

A NOT linked table would store the data locally, though.

Hopefully only one more question. When I click on the upsizing wizzard,
choose my tables, then choose validate, etc., then choose link SQL server
tables to existing application. When this is complete which table do I
add
new records to? One one that says link or the original one?

Thank you
Dee

It can be done FROM Access as well as from any other ODBC source, but it

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
Dee

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
.
