MIGRATION
Convert from Microsoft Access to SQL Server
ConverterTechnology announced its file-migration service for conversions from Microsoft Access to SQL Server 2000.

The service can also replace Data Access Objects (DAOs) with ADO when you migrate to SQL Server from Access. The service automatically converts DAO databases, recordsets, fields, and query definitions to their ADO equivalent.
