access thread: Transfer info from Access to SQL

Hi all,
I have a web site which uses Access database. We want to transfer the site
to a new host using SQL server.
The Access database can obviously be downloaded to my PC.
What we then need is a quick way to then "read" the Access database
configuration and data, eg. into a file, which can then be uploaded and
quickly "written" to the on-line SQL Server database so that it has the
same configuration and data.
The MYSQL database uses the command "mysqldump" in this way and it's very
effective - it takes about as long as the time to type a couple of
commands and do a quick FTP upload.
Is there a similar way to do this with Microsoft ?
thanks

Try using the following:
SQL SERVER/Enterprice Manager/Right-click database/All tasks/Import.....

Thanks Helga,
unfortunately I may not have access to Enterprise Manager becuase it will be
on someone else's server.
Also *what* would I import, and how would I generate it (the thing to
import) from Access ?
cheers
