To import a database into Access, first locate the database file on your computer. Next, open Access and click on the File tab. Underneath the Open button, you will see a list of folders and files. Click on the Browse button and navigate to the folder where you saved the database file. Finally, click on the Open button to open the database.

If you right-clicked on the database you wanted to import the data into, it should already be picked in the list. If not, select SQL Native Client from the Destination drop down. You should see the database instance under Server Name and then be able to choose the specific database at the bottom once you pick your method of authentication.
Copy the data from one or more tables.
If you want to copy all the tables or just some of the tables from the Access database, choose the first option. If you need to copy only certain rows and columns of data from a table, then choose the second option and write a SQL query. ..
If you click the Edit Mappings button, you can configure how the fields map between the two tables.
If you unchecked Run Immediately, then the package will be run as soon as it is downloaded and installed.

You can now run a SELECT on your tables to make sure all the data got imported.
