Appendix D: Manually Upgrade from Access to SQL Server
Desktop Engine
If you can successfully log into your B.A.S.I.S. 2000 installation and it is on a
computer with the Windows 2000 Service Pack 4 operating system or newer,
then your Access database will automatically be upgraded to SQL Server
Desktop Engine during the standard upgrade to B.A.S.I.S. ET Third Edition. If
you have upgraded your operating system or installed a new operating system
and you cannot log into B.A.S.I.S. 2000, you will need to manually upgrade your
B.A.S.I.S. Access database to SQL Server Desktop Engine when you upgrade to
B.A.S.I.S. ET Third Edition.
