I have Access & Microsoft SQL Server 2008 installed. I have a blank database on SQL server set up to import the data into.
- Go to Start > Microsoft SQL Server 2008> Import and Export Data. This begins a simple Wizard process
- Select the source that you want to import from (in this case Access) & browse to the location of the Access database.
Set any options like passwords. I'm doing a straight conversion into a blank database. I don't need to do any special queries, but you could specify which tables the data goes into, which tables you want to import and which ones you don't. - Click the ok button :)
If everything goes well, when you hook into SQL Server, your data will all be there!
