iSeries and Microsoft Query (Excel)

Anybody using Excel and Microsoft Query (Data, Get External Data, New
Database Query)? I'm trying to use this to run arbitrary SQL selects and
bypass creating download files.

When I enter the SQL, I get the error message "SQL Query can't be
represented graphically." I OK this non-error. However, the next error
is "Could not add the table 'vngdbdta/dbnxcpp'. One of the table selects
is vngdbdta/dbnxcpp. I verified my ODBC connection uses *SYS naming; the
library list shouldn't matter as I'm qualifying the table name.

 

Does anyone have suggestions on getting around the "Could not add the
table ..." error in Microsoft Query?
