I am totally new to the concept of upsizing and exporting access database to
sql server. At the very first step I am asked to select a server. Can't the
file(s) be saved on the local disk?

Please also refer to me an impressive discussion forum like this on net /
good source for guidance.

The "Server" in SQL Server refers to the fact that it is a Server based
product. You must have a SQL Server set up before you can create any
databases in it.

So, the first step will be to set up a SQL Server instance. Fortunately,
there is a free version of SQL Server, called SQL Server Express, which you
can install on your local workstation.

Before you do so, take the time to read about it. It is free and it is
relatively easy to set up, but it is not simple.
