Default How To - SQL Server?

I am totally new to the concept of upsizing and exporting access database to
sql server. At the very first step I am asked to select a server. Can't the
file(s) be saved on the local disk?

Please also refer to me an impressive discussion forum like this on net /
good source for guidance.

Thanx & Best Regards,

Default How To - SQL Server?

The "Server" in SQL Server refers to the fact that it is a Server based
product. You must have a SQL Server set up before you can create any
databases in it.

So, the first step will be to set up a SQL Server instance. Fortunately,
there is a free version of SQL Server, called SQL Server Express, which you
can install on your local workstation.

http://www.microsoft.com/express/Database/

Before you do so, take the time to read about it. It is free and it is
relatively easy to set up, but it is not simple.
