asp_databases thread: Moving to MSSQL


Message #1 by Martin Lee <access@o...> on Thu, 25 Apr 2002 16:39:44 +0800
Good Afternoon:

We will soon be moving our on-line data base from Access to MSSQL.

Can anyone recommend any good books to get us started off with MSSQL? We 
were looking at "Beginning SQL Server 2000 Programming" by Wrox.

Just out of curiosity, does Enterprise Manager ship with all versions of 
MSSQL 2000?

Thanks,

Martin

Your best choice for software is the SQL Server 2000 Developer Edition,
which is exactly the same as the Enterprise but you can only use it for
development, and it's much cheaper.

I have couple of SQL Server books but are not that great, so I'm not 
going
to suggest anything in particular

i'd recommend the Wrox book: "Beginning SQL Server 2000 Programming" by R.
Dewson.

It comes with a 120 day evaluation ed. of SQL Server 2000 Enterprise Ed. and
has a good opening discussion about the various editions (what platform each
will run on etc).  It even deals with the installation.

Some of it's a little easy, but has been good for me coming from an Access
background.  If you fancy something a bit more taxing, i'm about to buy
Professional SQL Server 2000 by R. Viera (again frm Wrox) which get's great
reviews.

HTH,
Col

Enterprise Manager question is yes.
One way of thinking here is load the SQL Server software and create the
database, then go to the access side and create linked tables using an
ODBC.  Access can talk to MSSQL.  Then just go into query in Access and
read the access table and write the SQL table.  I found this much easier
than exporting and importing.

Thanks Col:

Would you know if the evaluation ed. of SQL Server 2000 includes the
Personal Edition? I read that it is included as part of Enterprise and
Standard Editions, but could not find if was included in the Eval. Edition.

Will start off with "Beginning SQL Server 2000 Programming" :) And a later

stage will look into "Professional SQL Server 2000"

Regards,

Martin

Message #9 by Martin Lee <access@o...> on Thu, 25 Apr 2002 23:18:18 +0800
Thanks Ron:

am glad you brought this up:)

Basically our situation is that we will continue using Access in house and 
use MSSQL for
on-line data access.

Any ideas on options available to connect to the remote MSSQL database so 
we are able manage the MSSQL objects, since we won't have access to 
Enterprise Manager?

Thanks for the suggestion below, will use this to update records on the 
remote database.
