Importing Data from Access 2002 in SQL Express

Hi All,

At the moment i have a piece of software that uses Access to store the data into a number of tables.

I am developing a new piece of software that has been built around SQL express and need to upgrade users that are using access. I have managed to write the installation to install etc and also the start of a script to insert all of the tables. I cant work out how to get the data into SQL express using a script.

Basically the access db (CentralDb) will be stored a a given location C:\Program Files\CentralDB.mdb

The tables within the SQL version are indentical to access but i need a way of pulling out the information stored and putting it into SQL, and as there is no DTS i am becoming stuck on how to automate the process.

Any ideas?

Thanks in advance

Martin

Hi,

here is a good article to refer http://blogs.msdn.com/euanga/archive/2006/07/20/672272.aspx you may also use SSMA to migrate data from Access to SQL Express.
