Now we created the actual COMPUTER_ASSIGNMENT table and copy the data to it.
1. In SQL Server Management Studio, refresh the WP database. In Object Explorer, expand
the WP database, then expand the Tables object, then expand the
dbo.COMPUTER_ASSIGNMENT$ object, and finally expand the Columns object.
2. Open a New Query window, and run SQL-Query-AppA-EX-01:
/* *** SQL-Query-AppA-EX-01 *** */
3. Now we have to create the final COMPUTER_ASSIGNMENT table in the WP database. In
the Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio, write the SQL CREATE TABLE statement
for the COMPUTER_ASSIGNMENT table based on the column characteristics in Figure A-
65 (these are Microsoft Access 2016 specifications).

One important consideration here is foreign key constraints. Note that we link to both
the EMPLOYEE table using EmployeeNumber and to the COMPUTER table using
SerialNumber. What referential integrity constraints should we use?
For EMPLOYEE, EmployeeNumber is a surrogate key and is never updated. Further, WP
never drops employee records because of record keeping requirements. Therefore, we
will never cascade updates or deletes for this primary key.
FOR COMPUTER, SerialNumber never changes. However, when we remove a computer
from the WP computer inventory, we do not need to keep historical records of having
had that computer. Therefore, while we do not cascade updates, we will cascade
deletions for this primary key.
Here is the final SQL statement to create the COMPUTER_ASSIGNMENT table:
/* *** SQL-CREATE-TABLE-AppA-EX-01 *** */
CREATE TABLE COMPUTER_ASSIGNMENT(
SerialNumber Int NOT NULL,
EmployeeNumber Int NOT NULL,
4. Run the SQL-CREATE-TABLE-AppA-EX-01 statement. The result is shown in the screen
shot on the next page.

5. To copy the imported data from the temporary COMPUTER_ASSIGNMENT$ table to the
final COMPUTER_ASSIGNMENT table, use the SQL bulk INSERT statement
SQL-INSERT-AppA-EX-01. Note that we use an ORDER BY clause in the SELECT statement
to order the data inserted into the COMPUTER_ASSIGNMENT table:
/* *** SQL-INSERT-AppA-EX-01 *** */
INSERT INTO dbo.COMPUTER_ASSIGNMENT
6. After running the SQL-INSERT-AppA-EX-01 statement, run SQL-Query-AppA-EX-02. The
result is shown in the screen shot on the next page.
/* *** SQL-Query-AppA-EX-02 *** */
7. Dropping the temporary COMPUTER_ASSIGNMENT$ table is optional—if you drop it, be
sure you drop the right table!

Because we were able to put all needed constraints, including PRIMARY KEY and the
FOREIGN KEY constraints, into the SQL CREATE TABLE statement, the
COMPUTER_ASSIGNMENT table does not require any modifications and is ready to use.
A.32 If you have not already done so, create the WP-User user account and associated
permissions in the SQL Server 2016 WP database as explained in the text.
A.33 Create a user account in the SQL Server 2016 WP database named WP-Reader. Give
this user SQL Server authentication with the password of WP-Reader+password and
with other password settings to match those shown in Figure A-44. Give WP-Reader a
user mapping to the WP database with public and db_datareader permissions only.
1. In the Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio, expand the Security folder so that the
Logins folder and its contents are visible.

A.34 Create a Microsoft Access 2016 database named WPIS_RO.accdb where RO stands
for “read-only.” This database will be a read-only application for the SQL Server 2016
WP database, which will allow users to read and query the data in the WP database but
not to make any updates to the data or to insert new data. Then:
1. Set the WPIS_RO.accdb database to use SQL Server Compatible Syntax
(ANSI 92).
2. Link the WPIS_RO.accdb database to the SQL Server 2016 WP database. When
you create your File Data Source DSN, name the DSN WPRO, and use the WP-
Reader user account (as detailed in Exercise A.33) for SQL Server
authentication.
1. In the Microsoft Access 2016 WPIS.accdb database, click the External Data
command tab, and then click the ODBC Database button in the Import & Link
commands section.
