Convert website from Access to SQL Server

Paid on delivery
I have developed a website for a company in the UK that uses ASP.Net (Visual Basic) and an Access database. The company has grown considerably since then and the website is now having severe slowdown issues. They now need to reset IIS at least once a day. Once reset the site runs ok but eventually it needs resetting again. I have tried optimizing the code as best as I can but now need a permanent solution as the company will only get bigger and take on more staff. I think the solution is to convert to SQL Server but I only have limited experience using it so I need someone to do the conversion and bring me up to speed on developing with it into the future. Although the customer and the website is in the UK, I live in Thailand. It may be possible for this work to be done remotely but another possibility is that the successful candidate should come and work on the conversion here with me (if that were the case I could provide free accommodation). The application is in the field of construction with many detailed steel calculations as well as more general project management functions. Finally, I am unsure as to the budget on this so have left the default selection of 'Very small project' and will see what response I get. This could be a very interesting project for someone and if it goes well there is a lot of further development work in the pipeline that could also be delegated.

PLease let me have a look at your source code, maybe we can convert to SQL Server with very few changes in the source code to fix the queries. I need to see how much work is needed to place a fair offer for this project.

Hi, i have read your problem description and have some commentaries and questions. I agree that the DBMS maybe causing your problem. MS Access is not designed for used by many concurrent users. and the asp.net application tweak and redevelop is a must if you want to switch to MS SQL Server. Questions : 1. How many users using the application? and how many possibility concurrent users using the application? 2. Is it the application now based on ASP.NET MVC? 3. What is the current .Net Framework do you used? REgards

I am Microsoft Solution Provider with many years of experience with MS Access, VBA, VB.NET, SQL and database design and implementation. I will help you with the specifications, detailed design and implementation of your project. I just recently completed a local MS Access project. The project had 6 stations (MS Access front-ends) and a SQL Server back-end with DSN-less connections to the Access front-end. I have also completed ASP.NET projects that use SQL Server for data storage and retrieval. Contact me and we can begin to discuss the details of your project.

Dear friend, I already have an idea! I can host database on MSSQL on my server and we can try it over night. I need access database and I can convert it and populate MSSQL and we can do it tomorow night or during weekend. Just on few minutes. Be sure if everything is ok and then work further. I have been in this industry for more than 10 years and such jobs are my daily practice. This is my first time on this site and hence you can see that I do not have any ratings/testimonials to show you. I can assure you that if you work with me once, you will always work with me for these kind of projects. I`m ready to work for you ASAP. We have small team here - a family. My spouse and me, so we can be available 20 hours a day. We have great infrastructure, 100/4 internet, MS Win 2012 server, Debian server in Kansas USA, best possible computers, I`m PC professional - so all hardware is in great condition, we can talk if you would like us to use Skype or VoIP phones, we can have USA phone numbers if needed. My spouse name is Tatjana and my name is Dragomir. Both IT professionals. Our main job here is maintenance of IT infrastructure in "General Hospital Vrsac". You can call us on US phone number (1) 213-262-2885 Thank you for reviewing my proposal.

Hello! Please, check my portfolio, I think I can help you. You have Access database, good news is the Access database objects (tables, indexes and data) can be exported in MS SQL server without problem, slightly worse is the case with SQL queries in ASP (in your VB code), all of them will need to be checked, Access SQL and SQL for MS SQL are slightly different, and if you have programm objects in Access database (for example queries or some code), they are to be moved or in SQL server or VB side. I still have doubts about IIS why it requires a reboot, it seems that there are processes that do not free memory or which is not closed session, possibly something else. You may find that porting to another platform will not work.
