Hello Everyone,
Is there a wizard of Visual Studio add-in that I can use to convert MS Access
Reports to SRS 2005?

I use Visual Studio 2005 Professional, and the SSRS Report Designer
has a import utility for Access Report definitions built right into
it. If you start a Report Project, and then right-click on the
Reports folder within the Solution Explorer window, you should see an
option to "Import Reports, Microsoft Access..." appear in a context
menu.
I don't know if BIDS or VB.NET has the same options - I would guess
they do, however.

Convert SQLExpress db to Sql Anywhere

Hi,

Is there any way that an existing database in SQL Express can be converted to a SQL Anywhere ?

regards

You can use the SQL Server Integration Services to move the data from SQL Express to SQL Server Everywhere. The links from the Online MSDN is as given below:

Hello Ambrish

Thanks for a quick response.

But honestly, didn't understand how to do it.

I have created a database using SQL Express 2005 and have a project (using VB 2005 Prof) fully working with this db. Since the release of SQL Everywhere, want to try out the same project by just creating / porting the sql express database to sql everywhere (both structure as well as data - atleast the structure)

regards

Hi Dharam,

SSIS transfers data table by table from a data source to SQL Mobile database. It does not transfer the schema. There are third party tools that transfers schema and data.

Jo?o Paulo Figueira has provided a link to a tool in the following post:

convert SQL 2005 express .mdf to SQL 2005

Hi Forum, I need some good info regards remote host requirements.

I dev web app using VS 2005 express edition and SQL Server Management Studio express. Everything is ready to transfer to host running SQL 2005.

My ? do I have to convert my SQL 2005 express .mdf to a SQL 2005 file type. (hosting company state I do, then save as .bak)

much appreciate good data, Paul

A mdb file is Access based, an mdf file is the data file of SQL Server. They are not convertible. You will have to import the data from access or export / upsize from access to make them stored on the server.

There are two easy solutions:

1) Attach you .mdf file to your database with the hosting company.

2) Make a backup for your database (e.g. on the local machine) and restore it in your database with the hosting company.

Good luck.

Good luck.

There are two more solutions but some time it does not work due to security issues from the hosting company.

1) Use SSIS (SQL Server Integration Services) a wizard that will copy your data and objects from local machine to the hosting server.

2) Use Database Copy Wizard.

Good luck.
