Do you have a primary key define for ALLtables in your Access database. This is a must have in SQL server.
This may help:

I have taken several split Access database and upsized the Access back end to SQL server 08. I relinked the tables and off I went.
Did you get a chance to read the article in the link I posted previously?
To upsize my databases, I also used this:
SQL Server Migration Assistant 2008 for Access V4.0 (http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=133b59c2-c89c-4641-bebb-6d04476ec1ba&DisplayLang=en)
Note: I do not use an ADP. I stay with an MDE/ACCDE.
Also are you sure that you have write permissions to the SQL server database?
