Re: ODBC returns SQL error

["Jeffrey M. Carey" <jeffreycarey@xxxxxxx>]

I think you might be trying to go against an unkeyed or non-unique keyed
file.  The jet engine that all MS apps use for ODBC access demands that
the AS/400 file have a unique key.  If the file has a unique key field,
either recompile it as such or build a logical over it.  If it doesn't,
you could just add a field with some unique value and define it as the
unique key (either of the physical or a logical over it).
