Re: file conversion from SQL Server to Access



We are having problems with the www.SQLDTS.com and www.SQLIS.com websites.
www.Konesans.com is our consulting arm and I never you suggested you contact
us and pay us to provide a solution. We are always more than happy to
provide help on this forum as much as we can.

You want to take data and table structure from SQL Server to Access?

Do the tables in Access already exist? If they do and you can see the
database then in a transform data task you can simply select the Source
table from which you want to move data and then in the destination tab you
can select the access connection. On the transformations tab you will then
be able to map the columns.

You can also have DTS create the destination tables for you.

You can use the Import/Export wizard to achieve this also.

Not having a copy of Access will be a problem in so much as you will not be
able to open the Access DB after you have filled it with data. It will not
stop you loading it with data though.
