Does the user have access to the library/schema though.

Yes, the user has access to some of the tables. The problem is we don't

Hi,

I'm trying to setup a linked server in SQL Server to access my System
i. I
created the linked server and the test connection option is successful.
The error occurs when I try to expand the "Tables" folder underneath
the
linked server. The error I receive is:

Failed to retrieve data for this request.

The other thing I noticed is that it isn't picking up the Relational
Database Directory Entry as the "Catalog" name. It shows "default".
