Hi,

I have quite a big MS Access 2007 database that contains the various issues from the Project i'm working on. These issues rely heavily on pictures and other support documents that are currently stored on a NAS together with the back end.
The pictures and documents are retrieved by the database using hyperlinks.
We are now looking at a way to migrate this database to a more reliable system (SQL Server, MySql or Share Point) in an effort to make this database available to the final customer.

I have been combing the internet to find a walk-through but all explanations only relate to the database itself and not on how to move also the support files.

Can anyone help?

" need to find a solution to move everything to the customer "

I see, you are physically going to remove the image files from your network and install them on a totally different network under the customer's control? That was not clear earlier.

If that is the case, then, yes, you do have a hefty project ahead of you. It seems to me that the method you select depends, in part, on your having access to the customer's network, say via a VPN. If you do, then it should be reasonably straightforward, if not very speedy, to copy/paste the image files from your location to theirs.

Instead of searching in database venues, you might find more relevant information in forums dedicated to network management and document storage.
