    How to copy a table from Access file to SQLServer

    I'm able to copy a table from one Access mdb file to to another Access file using: (Answer from this forums a long time ago)

    "SELECT * INTO students IN 'C:\myaccess.mdb' FROM students"

    Meaning I copy the whole table students from the current connection access database to another access database file.

    How can I copy a table from an external access mdb file to the current SQL Server connection?

    Thanks in advance!

    Mike.

    SQL Server has a tool that would do that for you. It's called DATA TRANSFORMATION SERVICES. Very powerful imho.

    So if you have the SQL SERVER MANAGER installed, you can use this to IMPORT/EXPORT different types of data IN and OUT of your SQL Server.

    ARPRINCE,
    I'm totally agree with you regarding the DTS in SQLServer. I forgot to mention in my previous post that, I would like to do it using VB6, ADO, connect to SQL Server. I'm building the client application, and the user may not have access to the Enterprise Manager.
    Thanks!
    Mike
