EMPTY TABLE AFTER UPSIZING TO SQL

T

TompIfe

Hi,
I have an Access database that has a table which cannot be upsized to SQL
Server (the table is empty after upsizing).
Any suggestions on how I may procede to get the Access table into the SQL
database?
Kind regards,
Tom

A lot of potential problems with the Upsizing Wizard could block the copying
of the data to the newly created table; for example an out of sequence
insert command in relation to a foreign key relationship. I suggest that
you copy the data yourself with an Insert command and forget about this.

Also, the official newsgroup for upsizing problems is
microsoft.public.access.sqlupsizing

One possible problem is a date outside of SQL Servers smalldatetime
data type valid date range. 1900-01-01 to 2079-06-06. This happens
because of fat fingers on the keyboard and the users not having the
system display the century.

In one table of 100K records I found 12 examples of this problem.
