I have an Access application that uses forms. Can I import the entire project into MS SQL and still utilize the forms I used in Access? Thanks in advance!

Not sure how it will work with a complete database with forms, but I use a program to export MS Access tables straight into MySQL.

Try www.accessmysql.com

Regarding Access style Forms with SQL Server database, I guess that you would have to build a front end application with something like Visaul Basic.

u can keep your existing forms by simply upsizing the access tables to mssql and then linking the newly created tables in the mdb.

That way your data is held in a database that actually works while the interface is held in access (which works most of the time).
