This can be done from SQL Server Management Studio. See http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms140052.aspx. Your problem may be that the tool your trying to use does not recognize the newer version of SQL Server. That is a guess on my part.

Step 1, Choose an Access database, worked fine. Step 2, Connect to SQL Server, failed. The message suggests that I ensure that SQL Server is configured to allow remote connections (provider: Named Pipes provider, error 40 - Could not open a connection to SQL Server) I have SSMS open at the moment. The server name is (localhost) and it works fine. I'm using the same server name in SSMA but getting the error above. I've forgotten how to check that remote connections are allowed. Can you (or someone else) remind me? Thanks, Arthur On Mon, Feb 17, 2014 at 1:45 PM, Arthur Fuller <fuller.artful at gmail.com>wrote: > Thanks, Jim.
