if you've created tables in access, and you've spent time creating queries and based the forms on those queries... you can still use sql server.
on the server that is running ms sql server, create a new data base. then, one at a time, create all your tables exactly (as best you can) in the new sql server database.
back on your pc, open access, then your access db.
file, get external data, link tables, odbc databases.
new... and follow the wizard to create a new odbc connection.
if you later have connection issues, deal with them here:
tools, database utilities, linked tables manager.
alright. now the scary part. point all your queries to the tables that you've just linked.
o, carp, forgot to mention: either export your data from access to sql or vice versa.
and, field types are not quite exactly the same.
anyway, let us know.
