ACC2000: "CREATE TABLE Permission Denied" Error Message in Export to SQL

ID: Q209656

The information in this article applies to:
Moderate: Requires basic macro, coding, and interoperability skills.

This article applies only to a Microsoft Access database (.mdb).


SYMPTOMS

When you export a table from Microsoft Access to Microsoft SQL Server, you may receive the following error message

[Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][SQL Server] CREATE TABLE permission denied, database <database>, owner <owner> [#262]
where <database> is the database that you were trying to export the table to and <owner> is the SQL Login ID of the owner of the database.


CAUSE

You do not have permission to use the SQL command CREATE TABLE in the database that you are exporting the table to.


RESOLUTION

To correct this situation, the SQL system administrator or the owner of the database must grant you CREATE TABLE permission in the database that you want to export to.

NOTE: If at least you have rights on the SQL Server, you can try using a SQL pass-through query to administer permissions.
