Transferring Complete SQL Server Database

The TransferSQLDatabase method allows you to transfer an entire SQL Server database to another database. In effect, this method imports the entire SQL Server database into your Access database. Here is the basic syntax:

DoCmd.TransferSQLDatabase Server, Database, UseTrustedConnection, Login, Password,
TransferCopyData

Various parameters are used to specify how the method should execute. The following table explains the use of each parameter.
