[MS_AccessPros] Re: Can an Access function initiate a .NET ETL?

 

Your question is a bit confusing Beth but it sounds like you should be able to get your DBA to give you an SQL command you can execute in order to kick-off the process.

However, if you really are looking at an SSIS routine, this should be accessible via other routes so, there are two views to the situation. Either your DBA is stonewalling and keping information to his- or her-self or, there is a good reason why the process cannot simply be restarted once it has failed (after all, if something has failed, there must hae been a reason for it... who can say that the problem really has been cured and that the process really can be restarted without generating double entries?)
