Rich,

Could you have them try the iSeries Access ODBC driver? I think that one
lets you define the library list when you set up the data source. I'm
not big into this stuff but that might be something you could try.

subject: ODBC Connection from Word

I have a customer that is using ODBC from within Word (2003) to do a
mailmerge with a database file on their system in library QS36F. The
connection works just fine, but when it is processed on their server,
it's library reference is *USRLIBL .... this creates a security issue as
it gives the end user access to anything in their library list. Short
of severly restricting their library list, does anyone know how to make
this ODBC request library specific? I've gotten it to work on my test
sandbox, but it still comes up as a *USRLIBL request. It appears like
they are using the MS ODBC driver.
