UPSIZING

[Faraz Ahmed Qureshi]

Using ACCESS 2007 and VISUAL STUDIO 2008.
Need a simple database be converted to SQL.
From the database tools selected SQL Server;
Chose Create New Database;
For SQL Server inserted (local);
Inserted the default windows Login ID and Password but the following message
popped up:
Connection failed:
SQLServer does not exist or access denied.

Tried my level best surfing/googling. Any simple tutorial for conversion???
Don't need separate installation of SQL Server I presume, while I have VISUAL
STUDIO 2008?

Faraz,

Is SQL Server running when you try this?

Thanx Gina 4 replying,

I am totally new to SQL world. Kindly tell me how to make sure it is
running? If my VS2008 is running I think it should be running too?

Open SQL Server Management Studio and then log on to Connect.

Have you asked this question in a Visual Studio or SQL Server newsgroup?
This one is about getting started with Microsoft Office Access. Someone
here _might_ know the answer but if you move to the proper newsgroup, you
will greatly increase your chances.
