Hi Guys,
I have been asked to investigate the efficiency (and wisdom) of moving an Access 2003 DB to SQL Server.
Obvioulsy splitting the database into a Access Front End(FE) and Access back End(BE) Then imporintg the MS access tables into SQL Server.
Then relinking the SQL Server tables to the Access FE( which has the forms and the queries).
My question relates to the linking, does this give an efficiencies over previous linking to the Access BE ?
This is a relatively small database with no more than 5000 records of 30 fields storing the usual client name client address etc etc.
My concern relates to the queries.
In true client server the queries would be stored in the SQL server and called from the FE but this now cannot be done as we have lost that advantage.
Unless there some way to import the Access queries without any moficiations?
The Access DB is working perfectly over a WAN but company policy to to migrate to SQL Server!
