Hi Everybody,
I am trying to fetch some data from an SQL Server Database.
I have a query, but it keeps prompting for credentials.
SELECT Invoices.NavisionInvoiceNumber, Invoices.NavisionInvoiceDate, Invoices.NavisionCustomerNumber, Invoices.NavisionCustomerName, Invoices.NavisionTotalDeliveries, Invoices.FilesDistributed, Invoices.IsComplete, Deliveries.DeliveryNumber, Deliveries.PDFName, Deliveries.NumberOfTries, Deliveries.FilesMoved, Deliveries.HasFailed, Deliveries.IsComplete
FROM LVA.dbo.Deliveries Deliveries left outer join LVA.dbo.Invoices Invoices on Deliveries.InvoiceId = Invoices.Id ORDER BY Invoices.NavisionInvoiceNumber, Deliveries.PDFName
It keeps asking for an DSN (The DSN is on a networkshare)
How can i make sure that it goes automatically?
Edit: It has to be imported in Access 2010
Regards,
Robert

Is the the right subforum for this question?

The details are pretty sparse here. You are trying to import data from sql server to Access? How are you trying to do this import?

Hi Sean,
I am trying to import the data in to Access from an SQL Server Database.
I already have the data imported, but Access keeps bugging me with the location for the DSN file. Is it possible for Access to find the DSN file, because I want to have everything automated for the end users.
Or is there another way to import the data?

Are you using a Pass-Through Query in Access? If so, right-click the query, open it in Design View, and open the Property Sheet. The second item in the list should be ODBC Connect String; click the box to the far right on that line, and it should prompt you for the DSN to use for that query. Point it to the one you'd like to use, and the query should automatically use that DSN from now on. If you're using a query written in Access Visual Basic, you'll need to write a connection string to use with the query; there's quite a few utilities on the web that can generate one for you given some details.

Are you saying you import this data repeatedly? If so, can you create a view in sql instead? It seems highly inefficient to me to import data over and over.
Do you have the DSN setup on the machine for each user? Can you instead use some VBA and create an ADO connection rather than using a machine DSN?

I am using a Pass-Through Query... I will try it!
Edit: Thanks, Hisakimatama, It worked 🙂
