Linked Server Error

Hello,
I have installed IBM AS/400 Client Access on my machine and then added a new
ODBC Data Source.
I have been working with this ODBC connection on several DTS packages and
everything has worked just fine.
Right now, I need to access some information on my AS/400 server from
several stored procedures on my SQL Server. I already configured a Linked
Server to the AS/400 server using the Microsoft OLE DB Provider for ODBC
Driver.
When I click the Tables folder under the new linked server, I can browse
through all the tables on the 400 Database. But when I execute any query
(using OPENQUERY or 4-part names in a normal query) I get the following erro
r:
****************************************
***+++
Server: Msg 7399, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
OLE DB provider 'MSDASQL' reported an error.
[OLE/DB provider returned message: [IBM][Client Access Express ODBC Driver
(32 bits)] Driver not capable.]
OLE DB error trace [OLE/DB Provider 'MSDASQL' IRowset::GetNextRows returned
0x80004005: ].
****************************************
**
Why is this happening? What is the error? Is there anything I am doing
wrong? I have been "fighting" with this problem for several hours.
Thanks a lot, in advance, for all the help you can give me.Gabriel --

message, I would look at the client software installed on the SQL end. The
second thing to look at is the syntax used to attempt to get data. As long a
s
the SQL is fully ANSI standard, you should be fine on both ends; if not, the
likelihood of error increases.
