I created a script in ASP that will convert a ASP database into a MSSQL database.

I'm looking for someone with an Access database that wants to upgrade.

Let me know if your interested.

Is it for any Access DB, or for WWF DB's?

I'd like to mess with it, but can't get to it for a week or so.

Lead me not into temptation... I know the short cut, follow me.

WWF. I need to be able to test the DB to make sure everything still works 100% ok.

The only WWF access db I've got up is one I use for testing mods and stuff. Not really a forum that's in use so I don't think it'd give you an adequate test. Sorry.

Is there anything we need for this, except an Access DB? Like, MSSQL support on the server? Because if yes, then that's probably why you didn't get many volunteers.

I'd be willing to test it out. I'm about ready to upgrade my Access version to MS SQL (MSDE anyway). I've used Enterprise Manager to upside a WWF db to MS SQL in the past which still required a fair amount of hand tweaking in the db to get it to function.

If you've got a script to run, I'll give it a try. The WWF I'm running is 7.6, is that going to cause a problem?

The only problem i have found with my script is that the Access DB has to be on the same server as the MSSQL Server. I have yet to find a way around this.

If you are still interested let me know. But i need to test it locally first because i haven't touched the script in a few weeks now. I cant remember if i need to tweak it some more or not.
