SSMS Import / Export Data Wizard to Azure Synapse Issue - ssms

Gooday everyone!
SSMS Ver 18.9.2
I'm having an issue trying to export data using the Data Import/Export wizard in SSMS to our Data warehouse. I keep receiving this error:
cursor support is not an implemented feature for sql server parallel datawarehousing tds endpoint. (microsoft sql server native client 11.0)
Any ideas?

I was able to find a work around, or maybe it was just the way I should have done it all the while.
For selecting a destination:
Destination: .Net Framework Data Provider for SqlServer
Data Source: Server Name
Initial Catalog: Database
User ID & Password
I hope this helps someone else down the road!

Are you importing or exporting and what connection have you selected.

Import - Export an AZURE database in SSMS 2014

I want to import the database schema from an Azure database to my local environment (SSMS 2014 )
What i have tried ?
I created an empty database on my local pc .
Right clicked on it .. ->tasks-> import data...
Chose .NET framework data provider for SqlServer
Clicked on next ...
And i got an error prompt saying The connection string property has not been initialized
So the first part of the question is which of the 2 connection strings is the appropriate to use ? (ADO.NET or JDBC)
Are there any other required fields besides the connection string ?
And if yes where can i find the credentials for my db .
Thanks.
Are you able to use any tools? I strongly recommend Azure Migration Wizard from https://sqlazuremw.codeplex.com/ which allows migration to and from Azure - and you can migrate the data as well as the schema. Its free and pretty quick.

Linking An Access DataBase to Sql Building and building VB InterFace

Hey IO have an old access data base and I have reeated the New data base using SQL Server Management Studio but all the data is still in the Access data base and I was wondering how to link these two. I have been trying to create the linked tables in access using the ODBC tool but none of the table I want are appearing?
Was wondering if anyone has any ideas on how I can do this?
Also I then have started to create the front end of the database using Visual Studio but cant get the fields to populate as the SQL database currently has no data linked to it
Instead of linking tables have you considered using SQL Server Express (you did not mention what the 'new database' is, assume Access?) and the data import wizard to port the data to SQL Server? You get all the tools by downloading 'SQL Server with tools' from Microsoft. And use SSMS for management functions, it is much easier than the Visual Studio interface.

getting schema and data OUT OF SQL Server Compact into SQL Server LocalDB or SQL Anywhere (Sybase/SAP)

I want to export the entire schema and daily data from a SQL Server Compact database (3.x) into a SQL Server LocalDB or Express database. Evem better yet would be to pipe it daily into a Sybase/SAP SQL Anywhere database.
I would like to grab the Compact schema and port it to the other database, then set up a daily pipe to copy the data completely into the second database.
Any experts out there who know how to do this? Are there data migration tools in SQL Server LocalDB / Express that can be automated to do this?
Even better yet, would be to have the database painter in Powerbuilder 12.5 (SAP/Sybase) be able to access the SQL Compact database....but I'm not going to hold my breath. Powerbuilder could then do the data pipe.
Any ideas?
Thank you in advance.
You can use my SQL Server Compact Tools on Codeplex to do this, either from GUI, coomad line or via a .NET API

How to convert Visual Foxpro database into SQL Server database

One of my clients has a Foxpro database (.DBF file). I need to convert it into a SQL Server 2008 database.
Does anyone have any idea how to do this? Kindly give me solution.
Thanks in advance....
Try the following steps:
1.Create ODBC Data Source to DBF file
2.Using SQL Server Import Data Wizard (right click to database in the SSMS)
3.Choose Data provider for ODBC as data source
4.Map and import your data
You can use the "Upsizing Wizard" from the Visual FoxPro program, it's located on Tools -> Wizards -> Upsizing Wizard.
If you try this keep on mind two things:
You need add the DBFs to a Database Container (it's a safe procedure: create a new Database and ADD the tables). BACKUP, those file can't be used as a "Free table" anymore. Again, talking about data is secure thing.
You may need this into a 32bit concern, AFAIK there is no 64 bits ODBC driver for DBFs o VFP Databases. And the Upsizing Wizard don't work for OLEDB.
See more about it in this KB article: HOWTO: How to Use the Upsizing (SQL) Wizard in Visual FoxPro
Edit:
I totally forgot the improved Upsizing Wizard in Visual FoxPro 9 SP2, it's way better: (VFP) Upsizing Simplified
Edit2: This could help: How to use SQL Server 2005 Integration Services (SSIS) to import Visual FoxPro data into SQL Server.
