ACCESS 2000 and SQL Server 2000 Readiness Update
Microsoft has created the "ACCESS 2000 and SQL Server 2000 Readiness Update" to correct this issue. Follow the steps below to obtain and install this update:
Make sure you have Office (or ACCESS) 2000 SR-1. You can obtain the Office 2000 SR-1/SR-1a update the from the following Microsoft Web site:

中国南通服务器网,为中文网南通服务器网

Download the "ACCESS 2000 and SQL Server 2000 Readiness Update" from the following Microsoft web site: Spdns

http://office.microsoft.com/downloads/2000/Accsql.aspx 南通服务器网

Make a note of the folder to which you download this update. 南通服务器网

Double-click the Accsql.exe file, which you downloaded in step 2, to install the "ACCESS 2000 and SQL Server 2000 Readiness Update."
IMPORTANT: After installing this update, you must use Mixed Mode Authentication (Windows Authentication and SQL Server Authentication) to upsize your database by using a SQL Server login. Windows Authentication mode is not supported. If Windows Authentication mode is set when you upsize, your tables or queries may be skipped. 南通服务器网

NOTE: If you install SQL Server with Windows Authentication Mode set, and later change the Security Authentication to Mixed Mode Authentication, the built-in system administrator (SA) login's password may be blank. After enabling SQL Server security you should immediately create a password for the 'SA' login to help prevent unauthorized ACCESS to your SQL Server.

After SQL Server Authentication is enabled, you can then use the built-in 'SA' account or create a new SQL Server account for upsizing. If you are using a new account, be sure to set the "Server Role" to 'Database Creators'. For more information, see SQL Server Books Online. [南通服务器网]

Workaround the Error Without the Readiness Update
You can use one of the following workarounds instead of installing the "ACCESS 2000 and SQL Server 2000 Readiness Update":
Upsize your data to SQL Server 7.0 or Microsoft Data Engine (MSDE) first. You can then convert the SQL Server 7.0 or MSDE database to SQL Server 2000. You can accomplish the conversion in several ways:
Use the Data Transformation Services Wizard (DTS) to move the data from SQL Server 7.0 or MSDE to SQL Server 2000.
Use the "Copy Database Wizard" in SQL Server 2000 to move the data.
Detach the database from SQL Server 7.0 or MSDE, and then attach it to SQL Server 2000.

CAUTION: Once you have converted the database to the SQL Server 2000 format, you will not be able to reattach the database to SQL Server 7.0. Spdns^com
