1)How regualarly would you extract the data?
2)It is fairly straight forward to access data for SQL Server from Access-
you can use the IMPORT function , and wrap it in a DTS.
Be careful, as there are datatypes in Access , that do not necessariliy
automatically convert to SQL server data types
3)For documentation- just do a google search on using: SQL server import
access

I work for a company which uses local Access databases at 15 differentcreate
locations through-out the country. If I want to extract data from these
databases, I have to import the tables from the respective servers or
linked tables to those servers. The data connection is not instantaneousand
in some cases takes a few minutes to pull even a small amount of data.Could
each of these databases be set up to update tables on an SQL Server forwhich
I could connect to and wouldn't this speed up data acccess speed ? Isthere
any documentation on the web which describes how to set this up ? I am
assuming that the local database speed would slow down if they accessed an
SQL table as opposed to the local Jet table.
