Hi,
I want to know about "Migration of Data". How can I use it.
Thanks,
Pratip
You can try to use
ThoughtScape Designer, the coolest by far !
Not sure, I think their official web site url is:

Proceed to migrate as follows:
==============================
* Import the strucure of the MS-Access db
* Create a new catalog (for sql server), copy this structure there and copy export the struture
* Define a new migration set and execute !
Detailed Step-by-step description: I'm in the mood to explain ...
----------------------------------
* Create a new Dictionary (A dictionary can hold multiple catalogs: A catalog represents a database if you do not know ThoughtScape)
* Import the structure of the MS-Accces database into the dictionary
as a catalog
- Dictionary Menu
- Import Structure Menu Option
- Identify your MS Access database as the db to import
* Create a new Catalog (To hold the target structure).
- Select Microsft SQL server 2000 or 2005 as the Plugin Type
