Hi!
I am currently working on a systems enhancement plan in
order to make an improvement on our current system. We
are currently using MS Access 97 as desktop database to
create an .mdb file with linked tables that use an ODBC
driver to link to files in AS/400. The amount of data
that is stored in our current Access databases is getting
bigger every day. As the result, users need to spend more
time than before to process data.
I plan to use Access Projects as front-end application and
get SQL Server 2000 as back-end to solve our current
problem. In this case, all the existing applications
developed in Access 97 need to be converted to Access
2000. My questions are:
1) Can an .mdb file in Access 97 being converted to
an .adp file (Access Projects) in Access 2000? If so, how?
2) Do I migrate only tables and queries in our
current applications to SQL Server 2000 and convert only
modules, macros and reports to Access 2000? If so, any
hints on doing this?
I'd greatly appreciate it if you could provide me any
suggestions that would help me in upgrading from Access 97
to Access 2000 in .adp file format.
Thanks,
Jeannette
