Step 1 of 5. Select Conversion Mode
Specify how Access to MS SQL migration tool should convert the source
database. The database converter provides two options of migrating
from MS Access to SQL Server:
- Migrate to MS SQL server directly - use this option to migrate
Microsoft Access database to the target SQL Server directly. MS SQL server
must be launched and the user must have sufficient privileges to write into
database. See Connect to SQL Server article
for related information.
- Export into local T-SQL script file - use this option to export
MS Access database into a local SQL script file instead of moving it to
SQL Server directly. The script file contains T-SQL statements to create
tables (along with indexes and constraints) and to populate them
with the data. See Importing T-SQL script
file article for related information.
