Edit Type Mapping (AccessToSQL)

The Edit Type Mapping dialog box lets you specify how types are mapped between the source and destination database objects.

You can access this dialog box in several places:

  • When you select a source database or database object, the Type Mapping tab appears to the right of the metadata explorer. Click Add to add a new type mapping, or click Edit to change an existing type mapping.

  • On the Tools menu, select Project Settings or Default Project Settings. In the resulting dialog box, select Type Mapping. Click Add to add a new type mapping, or click Edit to change an existing type mapping.

Table-specific type mappings override database and project type mappings. Database-specific mappings override project mappings.
