"Overflow!" error when Upsizing from Access

Hi
I've just installed MSDE 2000 Release A on WinXP Pro. All seems okay, but when I try to upsize an Access Database, I get a message box saying "Overflow!".
Any ideas on what I'm doing wrong? I'm new to SQL Server
Cheers
Dan
It depends on which version of Access you are using -- see
http://support.microsoft.com/default...;en-us;q294407 for
the Access 2002 upsizing whitepaper -- there's a link to the A2000 one
if you're using that.

Thanks, am downloading that now. Forgot to mention I'm using Access 2000.
One question though.. when you install, what's the default login you would use? I used the SAPWD switch to create my password, but what's the Login ID for a default instance? May seem like a silly question, but it might be what's causing my problems!
Cheers

and password with the upwiz, not integrated security (the whitepaper
should discuss this). It's a valid login that you create. FWIW,
upgrading to Access 2003 is highly recommended if you're going to keep
an Access FE to a SQLS BE. A2k was released *before* SQLS 2k, and
there have been many improvements and bug fixes since then.
