I'm using a basic MS Access 2007 front end for some users that are not SQL Server savy. I am using a button to allow them to opent the Import/Export Wizard, however, I would like them to be able to select the Server and Database on the MS Access Form and then have it passed to the Wizard when it opens.

Is this possible?

For that you should be using a SSIS package rather than the standard export import wizard. you could create the basic transfer functionality using export import wizard and save it as a package. then open this package in BIDS and add configurations inside it for server and database properties. then you would be able to pass values for these properties from access forums and call package programatically to execute
